Thank you sharing this...I really needed to hear a lot of what you had to say today. Your advice is spot on and genuine. I truly appreciate your realness and honesty about how hard this is, but also how rewarding it can be. It's all about keeping it in perspective. Glad to hear it's all worth it.

i just found out tonight I'm accepted into the pre-master's program. I'm considering doing the extended program to get the SLPA certificate. Sorry to hear about your GPA...to me it seems like you're taking the initiative to prove yourself and your abilities, no shame in that.

Phaedra, thank you so much for your response. Congratulations on all your acceptances! My fingers and toes are crossed at this point. I knew when I applied that the program is competitive and very small. I've heard really good things about it and know someone who just graduated that absolutely loved it.She said everyone is so supportive and helpful. I really have my heart set on it. If I don't get in this round I will definitely reapply. I feel like I'm at a disadvantage because I would have to take pretty much all the pre-reqs since I wasn't a COMD major in undergrad. On the other hand, I have a strong GPA and I'm about to complete another master's degree in May. At the end of the day I'm just hoping for the best! I hope you make the right decision for you. I've heard/read great things about MGH. You just have to weigh all the pros and cons and do what makes sense for your situation.

Hi everyone, This is my first post. I discovered this forum right around applications were due and have been lurking for a while. I applied to URI for fall 2015 and am waiting to hear back. I saw on the results page some people have been accepted. While I am happy for them, it makes me anxious since I have yet to hear anything myself! I was wondering if anyone else that applied to URI might have feedback or any information at all. I would be so grateful.
