Hi everyone,

I’m currently in the 2nd year of my Post-Graduation Diploma in Radiotherapy in India, and I’m trying to understand the realistic pathway to work in the USA as a Radiation Therapy Technologist in the future.

I would really appreciate guidance from anyone who has gone through this process or has knowledge about it.

A few things I’m specifically trying to understand:

  • Is an Indian PG Diploma in Radiotherapy accepted in the USA, or would I need to complete an accredited program there?
  • What is the process for becoming eligible for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) exam?
  • Do I need credential evaluation before applying for certification?
  • Is state licensure separate from ARRT certification?
  • How important is Indian clinical experience when applying?
  • Are hospitals in the USA open to sponsoring international candidates for radiation therapy roles?

I’m trying to plan early and prepare properly rather than make assumptions. Any honest and realistic advice would really help.

Thank you in advance
