  1. 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?
  2. I am graduating this semester from a good research university with my bachelor's in Speech Pathology. I will have a minor in Spanish as well. I'm planning on applying to SLP schools, but the further I research into things, the more worried I get. My overall GPA is only 3.47 and my major GPA is 3.6. My overall is low because I was taking intensive science courses like organic chemistry because I thought I wanted to be a dentist for awhile. I am currently doing research with a professor who has a PhD in audiology and I have a lot of volunteering experience (in all kinds of health care settings). I'm a member of the national NSSHLA. I am employed as a newborn hearing screener, which I feel is related to the field as well. I'm taking the GRE in November. Considering it's Oct. 4th, do you think I'm too late on everything? How much notice should I give for a LOR from somebody? I feel like I'm way late on things. Thanks!!
