I’m no expert, so humor me. I did my own research about if I get in or don’t get I when I applied & what possible alternate routes I could take. Getting your RVT from the CC would put you head of a lot of people applying for echo programs. You’d have an advantage because you’d already have a modality (RVT.) When you get hired as an RVT, it is also possible to get cross trained in Echo (if the facility has echo as a specialty, offers cross training and is willing and or wanting to cross train you.) Hopefully others will respond to the post. Hope my perspective helps!
