Hey Ems390,
I went to undergraduate at Westminster Choir College down in Princeton, NJ, where I got a bachelor of music in classical voice/opera. I graduated 2 years ago, when I was 21. I spent my first year out of school deciding whether I wanted to get a master's in voice or go into something else. I decided on SLP about halfway through the year. Attended a certificate program in voice medicine this past summer at the National Center for Voice & Speech in Salt Lake City, then started my prerequisites online through Utah State University when I came back to NJ at the end of the summer, after my program had concluded. I'm very interested in dealing with voice disorders/care & maintenance of both the professional voice as well as voice therapy for non-professional voice users/everyday people! I know NYU tends to appreciate students with a variety of backgrounds and they also have several professors in the SLP department who deal with voice, which is pretty great considering that you're lucky if you can find even one voice-specialized faculty member at most schools. What's your background? Hope all this helps!
Best,
Giancarlo
