EMS and Paramedic Education

Programs have specific admissions and eligibility requirements. All applicants must meet the same entry requirements as students with regular admissions status. In addition, the State Office of EMS requires all applicants to be 18 years of age and a high school graduate or equivalent. Candidates transferring from another EMS Education program or program within Georgia Piedmont Tech must have acceptable English and Math transfer credit as determined by the Office of the Registrar, or minimum placement test scores as required by the specific program for which the candidate is seeking entry. Placement test scores more than five years old will not be accepted and the candidate will be required to sit for the ACCUPLACER before further consideration will be afforded.
