  1. They have actually been calling me for the past two weeks regarding my application. (760) 750-4004 You can give it a try and see what they say.
  2. I am planning on applying for the spring semester. Does anyone know if they require letters of recommendations? I can find the form on the website. Thanks.
  3. Hey MangoSmoothie If you don't mind me asking. Where did you apply? I have similar gpa as you.
  4. What if you do graduate with a B.A. in Speech-Language Pathology. One or even two years pass and you cannot get into a program for your Masters. Has anyone thought about getting your Masters in a different field? Like Rehabilitation Counseling. Any ideas? I'm just trying to prepare just in case things don't go my way.
  5. I did not declare as a double at my university. Would that help?
  6. Hi everybody I was just wondering has anyone had two majors but only finished (graduated with) one, but has thought about finishing the second? Is it possible to transfer units to a different university to finish the second major? I know my current school states that once I graduate with a B.A. I won't be able to do a second.
  7. Hello fellow SLPs I am raising money for me (and some other students) to go to the CSHA convention in March in Long Beach, Ca. I would really appreciate any donations you can make, but I understand if you cannot because we are students trying to get through college. However, if you know anyone willing to donate, please share the link. Thank you http://www.gofundme.com/cshaconvention2015
  8. It varies from semester to semester. Last years stats were 25/150. Hope this helps.
  9. Hi AMH I wont be applying until the fall but you can contact Steven Skelton the graduation coordinator for more information at sskelton@csufresno.edu
  10. I agree with MBSLP The best thing that you have is that you are a sophomore. I am in the same boat. I am senior, well now to be a super senior. My current gpa is also a 2.8 and I am in the same situation as you. But there is more hope for you than me to amend your gpa. When i graduate, even if I get 4.0 in my last 2 semesters (30 units) and retake 3 courses (that I received D, my freshman year) I would end up with only a 3.1. So yes you can do it, and do it better. If I can raise my overall gpa from a 2.8 to a 3.1 in a year, imagine what you can do in 2-3 years. I would recommend retaking any course with a D, and if you need to take an extra year to improve your gpa than do it. If this is really what you want to do you need to get focused (answer some of the question from the previous post), god knows I wasn't, and now I'm paying for my mistakes. But I'm not giving up, there are several posts I have read in this site that had had lower gpa's and still got into a grad school, and it is because they made sure that the other stuff was excellent (GRE scores, Letters of Rec, Personal Statement, Lots of Observation Hours). That is what I will be focusing on. It is a great profession to be part of, and it is worth the time, energy, money, and tears you put into it. Good luck and I wish you the best in your journey.
  11. Hello everyone, I am new to this website and was hoping for some advice. Can anyone give me advice on the things I can do to stand out? (volunteering/shadowing/experiance) I have tried to reach out to some SLPs in schools setting but with little success. I still have a year as an undergrad, so I still have time to polish my resume. Maybe share some of your experiences that were successful in getting you into grad school. I know it is very competitive, and I want to add to my resume to give me a higher chance on getting accepted into a grad program. I also like to mention that I do not have the best GPA according to the stats I have read. However, I am working on improving it. Thank you so much.
