FYI....and I'm sorry if this is old news but it tells you on the CSDCAS site what day they are up to for verifying.

I applied awhile ago and have been following up every month or so. I was told a few weeks ago that I should hear something soon. I assumed it would be regarding the interview since I haven't had it yet. I was trying to check my application status but it wasn't coming up... it would only allow me to start a new one. For curiosity sake, I tried to log in to the actual site and to my surprise, it gave me a Shark Link id and temp password, along with a Nova email . But: 1) I had no interview 2) I can't go any further than that (register for Shark Pass) Of course, its a holiday and nobody is there

Count me in... 38 married with 2 children (6 & 3), thankfully I have my husbands support. I graduate this May and applied to 3 schools (only 2 locally and 1 online). My GPA is ok,compared to others (3.65) but my GRE SUCKS. I just didn't have time to study with all of my obligations. Thankfully Nova doesn't use that but my other 2 schools do. I made it a point to make contacts with each school and have lots of volunteer experience. Just have to wait it out...hoping my life, volunteer and work experiences count for something. If I don't get in this year, I will retake the GRE.

We are given guidelines by each person we request and that includes how many they will write. I have one professor who will only write 4 but another who will do 10. I would request the letter first and see if they give you any limit. I think it also depends on your relationship with each. Some will go the extra mile....some won't, but they also get a TON of requests this time of year. Thankfully, I only need 3, lol!

Just filled out the app...now I wait, lol

Thanks guys!!!! They do have an application on their website.

Trying to debate if it's worth the expenses incurred to put on my resume/application....thoughts??

Bump....interview on Tuesday. Sooooooo nervous!!!! Has anyone heard anything? I know they said the site visit went very well and they were going to apply for accelerated status (or something like that) so they could start in the Fall but I haven't heard since. Emailed Ryan last week but I guess he was out of the office because he's usually really good about emailing back.

Just got an interview

I just talked to someone in admissions today and they said the program probably would not start until January. Did anyone else hear this?

Congrats!!!!

I only applied to one program my first time around due to family constraints (location & needed part time this year at least as an adjustment). I have been volunteering for a year with a local fluency expert (my desired area of interest) and she just offered me paid employment....very flexible. I will work with her whether or not I get in but will work more hours if I have the extra time (have 2 small children)

Still waiting....but I guess that's what happens when you only apply to 1 program, lol! 2nd round goes out starting April 18th.

:)

I see some acceptances and it's the first time I've been nervous this whole time...still waiting. Can anyone accepted provide details of emails/letters? Pretty, pretty please P.S. This is the ONLY program I applied to this year so I'm freaking out!! ETA: Time you received the email? From who? What did it say? Did you get a letter too? Same day? Can you tell I'm going crazy, lol?!?!

Fellow mommy here!!!! 2 year old girl and a 6 year old boy. I was also working part time (massage therapist), volunteering 10 hours a week and going to school full time. I'm exhausted....mentally & physically so I actually only applied to one program, part time status. I won't be working as a massage therapist but my volunteer experience has turned into a paid position with an SLP. That's all I can handle after the last few years. If I don't get in this year, I will soak up every minute with my kids, retake my GREs (the only thing I think that would hold me back) and reapply next year to all the local & online programs.

Awesome!!!!

If whoever was accepted to West Chester reads here, can you give me the details of the email you received? Thanks so much!!!!!

Congrats everyone on all the acceptances. I only applied to one program for this year and first round doesn't even go out til the end of March so I'm living vicariously through all of you, lol!!

Re: Syracuse. It could also be an applicant that's trying to increase their own chances...that was honestly my first thought.

Just curious if anyone has ever asked or may know the answer. When ASHA or a school lists their average GPA acceptance stats, is that the first round of those accepted? Or is it the stats of the entering class, that would include 3rd & 4th rounds? I guess it could be different for each but just curious, lol.

I emailed the coordinator for West Chester and was told "the first round if invitations would be sent by April 1st". I think they email.

I would check the individual school requirements. I'm waiting for my Fall grades to post as well
