I'm applying to audiology programs for the third time around. Last year I had been waitlisted at uOttawa and spent my summer waiting and waiting and driving myself nuts. This year I am debating what to do exactly.
The first time around I had applied to Western and Dal (before the GRE was necessary) and last year just to Western and Ottawa. This year I've since taken another course, and by January should have finished another. I've been working full time in audiology for 2 years now so I have tons of experience. I'm upping my volunteer hours with committees and coaching to be more well-rounded.
Debating whether I can squeeze in the GRE in January so I can apply to Dalhousie, and how worth it it would be. Wondering if Western is just marks based and I should just forget about it? And considering the hearing instrument practitioner program, a bit of a step down but I will at least have a pretty good scope of practice in the field, but will definitely be limited as to the populations I can work with.
Arggh. People think SLP is tough to get in, try having maybe a quarter of the seats across the country!
