Mine says a decision has been made, but there is no decision listed...

I have been accepted to UVA and am so excited! Now that I'm approaching decision time I need some help... Does anyone have inside info on this program? Especially wondering about opportunities for funding, what Charlottesville is like, and clinical opportunities. I would love to go somewhere that will help me get experience with more medical SLP. I assumed they would have students in the hospitals because they have their own hospital system, but I haven't read anything about that. Thoughts? Would really appreciate any input!

So far UVA is my number one! Will have to visit in the next couple of weeks to know for sure.

Got both the invite to the open house and the funding email!

Nashville is not quite as big, but I imagine Tennessee State is not super competitive.

That's a really good point. Thank you!

Hi all! I'm an out of field (Spanish and Education) student applying for Fall 2015. As I'm preparing my personal statement, I have run in to a couple of problems. My ulitmate goal is to work as a(n?) SLP in a medical setting, dream job would be NICU, or as a bilingual SLP with Spansih-speaking clients. Is it wise for me to talk about my specific goals in my personal statement, or would that make me seem closed-minded?
