Becoming a pediatric oncologist can take around 4 to 8 years of schooling.

You'll spend at least the first 4 years studying and preparing for a pediatric oncologist career and getting your undergraduate degree.

It also depends on what specialty you plan to work in oncology as since there's medical oncology, pediatric oncology, radiation oncology, or gynecological oncology.
