Hi everyone,
I have been unable to sleep and been so stressed about this!!
I am finishing my undergrad in SLP this semester. Taking the GRE in November. I have a 3.47 overall and a 3.6 major GPA.
I have a lower GPA because I was taking intensive science courses like organic chemistry because i wanted to complete pre-med requirements for dental school.
I always wanted to be an SLP before I came to college, but I changed my mind so many times during college that I put SLP on the back burner...I never thought of getting close to any of the teachers in the profession because I didn't think I would end up doing that job.
How bad would it look if my LORs came from: a professor of SLP/audiology who I was doing research with, a supervisor at the newborn hearing screener program, and an SLP that I shadow??
I don't want to ask a professor who I took one course with a year ago..they have hundreds of other students asking them for LORs.
Do you think I should just use the 3 LORs that I can get for this year, and if I don't get in, just try to do some volunteering for other professors in the department even if I'm not a student anymore?
Thanks
The schools I plan on applying to are:
University of Virginia, St. Xavier University, University of Nebraska, Omaha, Arizona State University, New York University, St. Cloud State University, Mankato State University, Northern Illinois University.
Do you guys think George Washington University is too far a stretch for me?
