Thanks! If I get information, I'll pass it along!

Good for you! Don't back down!

Congratulations! I'm so happy for you!

The SLP classes are usually looked at separate.

As I prepare for my interview at Lehman College, I can't help to think what is taking Brooklyn College so long? BC has an online grad admissions chat tomorrow I plan on attending. Maybe, I will get some insight.

I would fight this. Did you get a receipt when you gave in application?

Click on results search on the top of page. Hover over red diamond stats are there.

Me too. I really think it determines absolutely nothing.

As a black woman, I was the only black that interviewed for a local school. I can not say for certain it is improving. I would need to see the numbers of those actually pursuing SLP.

I do not understand why they would wait to send out reject letters. Many people wait to hear from all schools before making decisions. Besides, if a school is planning on rejecting you why not send it out right away?

Thanks! Good Luck on the interview! I hope you get in. They have a great program.

Thank you so much, TheRealMSol. In reading the various stories, I really feel the passion many have for this field. It is so nice to see people passionate about working towards field that ultimately makes lives better. The never give up attitude is so inspirational. I hope to report good news.

Congrats to all who received good news this week!

Thanks, TheRealMSol! Your words of encouragement are very comforting during this stressful time of waiting. What is terrible is you give them 125 dollars and you think your application will be processed properly! It is quite unbelievable! How was your interview at Brooklyn College if you already went? I have not heard from them yet.

Speechie218, I am sorry my story is in the NY/NJ thread. Long story short I took my prereqs at Lehman. My adviser told me I would not get into grad school with my grades. I had just started prereqs and had good grades. However, I went to Lehman back in 1999 and did not do well. I left and got my BA at Hofstra in 2003. I have a MS also. When I tried to explain this to her, she says to me " I do not know what you are trying to sell me here" . Everytime I met with her, she me told I would not get in... Fast forward to Nov 2013, interview time for admission to grad school. Guess who is my interviewer? this B**** adviser. I did not feel like I got a fair impartial interview. I took it to the chair and eventually to the dean. On top of that, my application sat in the office complete and not reviewed by department although it was complete. I confirmed it was complete months ago. This same day people were receiving dates for interviews. That my experience with Lehman.

Honestly, not a relaxed interview. It was quite uncomfortable. First off, you sitting in chairs made for children. I am 5ft 10in so it is not comfortable. Two interviewers are sitting across from you and a table is in between. I was told there are two admissions committee members from the dept looking at the interview from the window they use to observe SLP treatment sessions. The two questions asked where give two speech disorders and two language disorders. The other question was what are the 5 components of language. Yes, I reapplied. I was granted another interview is Fall 2014. If you look in this thread, you'll find my story...I hate recanting it!

Speechie, I had an interview for Lehman College for Spring 2014. They ask a couple SLP questions. I was asked what are my hobbies. Why did I chose Lehman was another question. I hope this helps. No writing sample was taken from me.

Thanks so much LDadvocate! Your words have meant a lot to me during this stressful process. I wish you the best! Keep me posted on your progress! I know you will be a SLP. You have the drive and right attitude!

Thanks Ssen! I just know you'll get admission this year! No waiting until next year for you!

It really depends on the school.

Daisynic, Michigan State is a great school! A old classmate of mines went for physical therapy. I hope you get accepted! Good Luck!

Than Thanks daisynic...I almost feel they will deny me out of spite, but at least I let them know they were wrong!

After getting on the blow horn at Lehman College on the mishandling of my application and unfair interview I received for Spring 2014, I was granted another interview. This is really bittersweet. If I get in, and happen to get into Brooklyn College. I think I may head to Brooklyn College.

Thanks LDadvcate! Was Brooklyn the only school you applied? I feel like SLP is my calling. LOL Yes, I agree with you! It is like the love of your life that you can never forget! I am an older applicant, but not too old. LOL I refuse to do what I am doing now for the next 30 plus years! LOL
