After I obtain my bachelors degree in radiation therapy, I would like to apply to a two- year p.a. program school such as Loma Linda, USC, or other ones in California. Am I on the right track with my undergrad major decision to become a p.a. ?
I am thinking it’s a good idea to do radiation therapy at an undergrad stage because if all else fails and I dont end up getting into a p.a. program, I will have my degree and do radiation therapy.

I read that there are less the 100 schools in the country offering these but have no idea how to find out which?

The reason of my concern is that I am considering radiology a career choice for myself. I know i have what it takes to get into medical school but once i am there the competition is a step above and I heard that only the best graduates find residency programs in radiology??

It is 18 months and includes a fair amount of clinical experience. Because it is a hospital based program you do not receive a bachelors degree. You receive a certificate of achievment. Will this affect me from getting into med school down the road because I need an m.d. or d.o. to become a radiologist.. I won’t have a bachelors, but most bachelors degrees don’t come with 18 months of clinical experience. I would be a board certified radiation therapist when I apply to med school.

PCC does NOT have a program? http://www.radiologyworkers.com/radiology-blog/still-seeking-sonography-program-in-oregon-help-pcc-does-not-have-a-program/ http://www.radiologyworkers.com/radiology-blog/still-seeking-sonography-program-in-oregon-help-pcc-does-not-have-a-program/#comments Fri, 10 Jun 2011 19:50:46 +0000 Radiology Jobs http://www.radiologyworkers.com/radiology-blog/still-seeking-sonography-program-in-oregon-help-pcc-does-not-have-a-program/ I posted my request for help already and got the same response which led me to ask here. Try PCC. Having already contacted the majority of the schools I can think of in my area (as well as those accredited beyond a reasonable commute to see if I can work something out) let me just say it was PCC that responded to me confirming that they do NOT have a program for Diagnostic Medical Sonography / Sonographer or Ultrasound. What PCC Currently has (as of an emailed response dated 8/6/08 and their website) are a Radiography program earning an Associate of Applied Science Degree as well as a nine month program for MRI Technologist Training IF you are already one of the following: Applicants must be currently credentialed Radiography Technologists, Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographers, Nuclear Medicine Technologists or Radiation Therapy Technologists.
I am STILL currently actively searching for ANY program in the Portland Metro area (1.5 hour commute from Cornelius or less preferred).

How does a person really interested in making this career change find training in this field without needing to uproot the family for schooling? I am married with school age children and relocating for school is simply not an option. Help?
**UPDATE – awaiting response from Mountain College, although they may have the same require ments as I encountered from Florida as they are BS programs:
Associate Degree from a regionally-accredited institution OR a Certificate from a CAAHEP accredited sonography program AND currently registered in sonography by ARDMS, CCI, or ARRT.
I am still looking for the Associate Degree program so I can take the ADRMS??? Baby steps! :)
