First off, you'll definitely want to make sure the program is accredited. Otherwise, like you said, the school just takes your money and you have nothing to show for it--not accredited=no license. When you go to the site look up for Diagnostic Medical Sonographer and then just put your state in. http://www.caahep.org/Find-An-Accredited-Program/

Perhaps she could go to your local hospital and ask what they require in training to get hired there as an Ultrasound Tech. And also ask which schools they approve of.
