If you are able to move, look into rad tech programs at CCs in the midwest. A lot of them are not competitive and no waitlist because well...most people don't want to live out there/boring. But for only 2 years, once you get your AAS and pass your exam you can just move somewhere better. Plenty of access to nature though and also LCOL
Congratulations 👏🎉!!! I am currently in the Cardiovascular Technology program which starts in the Spring and end at the end of the following Spring semester. So I will be graduating May 2024. We are able to take our Registry exam 6 weeks before graduation and I will be planning accordingly to do so! I hope nothing but the best in your journey. Come back and tell us how's working going for you after at least 1 month of training so we can know is it everything you expected and are you doing everything that you learned in school and clinical's, etc. Can't wait for the work experience update!
Hello China doll savvy I'm Areka Ngomane from South Africa. I'm in my final year of high school, so I'm interested in studying Diagnostic radiography. Where are you studying radiography and the minimum requirements? The reason I'm asking this questions is that if I don't qualify to radiography in South Africa, I would like to go and study abroad. So which continent, country, name of the university you are at and how do you apply?
it's mostly community colleges that offer X-ray programs for your associate in science degree in radiography I currently attend a community college for the X-ray program I start August 19th the classes aren't that hard but I'm in a smaller city in the United States Florida to be exact
Nice!! Honestly probably an A-B average but the better that you do in your prerequisite classes, the higher chances you’ll have of getting into a program! (If it isn’t a lottery selected program)
@@ugonwaanyakoha548 Yes, in total it took me 4 years to earn my degree. 2 years worth of prerequisites & 2 years in the rad tech program. There are also private 2-year programs that are more pricey but you won’t have to take prerequisite classes prior! (:

What was your GPA and grades like? I’m about to start my prereqs this month!
Nice!! Honestly probably an A-B average but the better that you do in your prerequisite classes, the higher chances you’ll have of getting into a program! (If it isn’t a lottery selected program)
Congratulations 🎉
Thank you!! 🤗
How long is the prerequisite?
On average 2 years worth of classes.
@@Chinadollsavvy for the prerequisite s?That's a long time

@@Chinadollsavvy So how do I get to do the 2yr pricey program.,what school offers that?
@@ugonwaanyakoha548what state / city are you in? There are many 2 year program trade schools, I’m currently in the MRI program, it’s only 21 months.
Does MRI tech get paid more than an X- ray tech?
Yes! Especially in a hospital setting.
