UPGRADE FROM STUDENT TO QUALIFIED SONOGRAPHER

Students who have completed their ASAR accredited course can upgrade their status from an Accredited Student Sonographer to Accredited Medical Sonographer by completing the Change of Status form.

Please have an electronically issued official document from your education institution or a certified copy of an original physical document ready as evidence of your completion of your course.

Please note:

• Do not make a new application to ASAR. All Student Sonographers who are active on the ASAR register or have previously been on the ASAR register must use the Change of Status form to apply for an upgrade of status to an Accredited Medical Sonographer.
• There is no fee applicable for Change of Status; unless a student has been removed from the register due to fee default or has deactivated registration.
• Students who have been removed from the register and wish to reactivate will need to complete a Reactivation form (see more information here), pay the appropriate fees and complete a Change of status form.
• Should any student sonographer on the ASAR register (Active or Inactive) apply for a new membership instead of utilising the Change of status form - the application will be rejected and we cannot provide refunds.
• All applications are processed within 2 business days and a confirmation email issued.
• Delays may occur to applications that are missing required information or appropriate supporting documents, or during periods of high volume.
