Decide whether you want to pursue a two-year Associate's degree or a 4-year Bachelor's degree. Both options will prepare you in anatomy, physiology, medical ethics and patient care. However, a Bachelor's degree will qualify you for professional registration that may lead to higher-paying positions and increased job opportunities, whereas an Associate's degree will qualify you for entry-level work in sonography.
Consider your college options. Decide whether you want to pursue your degree in a traditional college classroom or online. Contact local colleges and ask for brochures and information about their sonography program.
Apply to the college or university of your choice. Granted you are accepted, fulfill your general education requirements. For an Associate's degree, this should be about 30 credit hours. For a Bachelor's degree, this should be about 60 credit hours.
Declare your major as a gynecologic sonography student after you have completed your general education requirements. This usually consists of writing a letter of intent and giving it to your academic adviser.
Wait to see if you have been accepted into your school's gynecology sonography program.
