I was a Vanderbilt Master's student in the Special Education department and in the ABA program. Specifically, I got my M.Ed. in Severe Disabilities (low-incidence SPED) and my BCBA. I would not recommend this to my worst enemy! I am a BCBA working with individuals with ASD and/or severe ID (intellectual disabilities).
I deeply regret attending this institution - I do not feel that I had faculty support to assist me. NOTE: The early childhood and high incidence programs are unlike this, because there are more BCBA-Ds to support SPED + ABA students.
I am posting those so that others do not make the same mistake I did.
