To become an oncologist, an individual typically completes around 13 years of education and training. This includes four years of undergraduate education, four years of medical school, and a residency program in internal medicine lasting about three years, followed by a specialized fellowship in oncology that usually requires an additional two to three years. Overall, it can take approximately 13 to 14 years after high school to fully train as a practicing oncologist.

Medical school.
A typical oncologist's educational training will lead them through four years at an undergraduate institution, four years at an accredited medical school, about three years as an internal medicine resident and then about two more years in an oncology subspecialty residency. This gives a grand total of eight years in college and about five more as a resident before one is qualified to practice as an oncologist. However, I think most oncologists would agree that those 13 years are worth it for the satisfaction they receive from their occupation. :)
