What degree do I need to pursue Radiology?

Hi! I'm currently a freshman in high school, and I care a lot about my future and especially my academics. I plan on doing early college for an associates and my dream school is UCLA. After I graduate from UCLA I hope to go back to my home state to attend UNC School of Medicine. My question is, what degree specifically do I need to have to go into the radiology field for medical school? Some schools I've looked at do not offer radiology as a major, but their med schools do. If I were to major in nursing or some med field related major instead, would I still be able to go into medical school for radiology specifically? #medicine #doctor #college #college-major #radiology #premed

When making a list, how many majors do you want to keep in mind?

I have many aspirations, each completely different from another. It's hard for me to make a decision because they all have or don't have something that another major does. I would think that narrowing it down would be best when picking a college but....I don't know. I guess you should be open-minded? #college #college-major #major #college-advice #undecided

Is it hard to change majors?

I know many people who have changed their major multiple times and I have a strong feeling I might be the same when I go to college. My only concern is that if it is too hard to switch majors, it will affect me in a big way. I don't know too much about college but I do know you have to declare it at some point. Does that mean your set for life? Is it hard to change majors? #college #college-major #major #major #career

Can you be a licensed Speech Language Pathologist in multiple states?

I am planning to first get a bachelor degree in either communicative disorders or speech language pathology and then pursue a master's degree in Speech Language Pathology. I understand that there is a requirement to pass state licensing in order to practice in California. I wondered if there's one licensing test where I could be licensed in multiple states. This will allow more options and flexibility to practice in different states. #college-major #college #speech-pathology #higher-education #licensing
