It depends on what school you go to. Most community college programs are two years, but the prerequisites you need to get in also take about 2 years, and you only end up with an associates degree. If you go to a university, they may offer a 4 year program which would give you a bachelors degree. If your willing to pay the extra money, there are programs at PIMA and Apollo. These programs are 2 years total, without any prerequisites, but be aware that there are hospitals that refuse to hire techs who are graduated from those schools because of their bad reputation.
