Graduation was meaningless?
Stephanie022594 replied to amvat's topic in Speech-Language Pathology Forum
Did you have any trouble getting letters of recommendation from professors? One of my LOR didn't want to write me another letter my second time around and now idk if my other professors will either. That is the main reason why I am not applying again. -
Low GPA... Is there hope for me?
Stephanie022594 replied to pinkypink's topic in Speech-Language Pathology Forum
I had a friend who had 3 C's and got into grad school because of her experience and LOR. Don't give up. -
Is declining my only option crazy?
Stephanie022594 replied to nwslp's topic in Speech-Language Pathology Forum
I had a similar convo with my cousin. She got into NYU, but for nursing. She decided not to go bc of the price and she ended up getting a scholarship somewhere else. TBH, the debt is REAL. I'm on my year off and currently trying to pay off my loans and its a struggle. I decided to go to a college that was expensive and it's just not worth it. I would suggest to take the year off to improve your application so you can get into a cheaper school. -
What is your backup plan?
Stephanie022594 replied to amf18's topic in Speech-Language Pathology Forum
I've decided to go for occupational therapy assistant. The pay is pretty good and you do everything the OT does, but the paperwork and evals. I've worked in aba and decided that dealing with behaviors are not my thing. I would recommend looking into OTA if aba or teaching is not your thing!- 11 replies

Hey, when did you guys receive your rejections by last year? I am currently waitlisted and would like to have an idea of when the cohorts usually fill up by.

Career Options with a CDS Bachelor's Degree
Stephanie022594 replied to azure's topic in Speech-Language Pathology Forum
I work as a behavior specialist and the pay is not good. Most of the jobs listed above you can't really make a living out of. If you don't do grad school, I would recommend choosing an alternative career that pays higher because with just a CSD bachelors it is hard to make a living (at least where I am from) -

Has anyone been waitlisted? I didn't get a phone call, so I'm assuming I either got waitlisted or rejected.

SLP Application Depression
Stephanie022594 replied to Stephanie022594's topic in Speech-Language Pathology Forum
No, I was only allowed to apply to schools on CSDCAS. Not sure if that school was on it. I was kinda limited bc my LORs don't write letters for more than 5 schools.- 29 replies

I did ABA and it wasn't my cup of tea. Mostly bc I didn't like the company I worked for. I am also thinking of SpEd. I work for a school and they offer tuition assistance! But rn, I'm leaning towards OTA. Good Luck to you!- 29 replies

Yeah, same! How strange. Maybe this is a good thing! haha -
This is my second time applying and I am mentally drained. Last year, I was placed on waitlists for every school, but did not get accepted. This year, I'm in the same boat, but with only 2 waitlist. I applied for audiology last year and it seems like I was a stronger applicant for audiology than speech. I just don't know what to do with my life. I can't get a job that pays more than $18 an hour with my undergrad degree and being from NY, that is not enough. I am drowning in student loans and will prob never be able to pay them off now. This even affects my love life/personal life as well. Does anyone who did not get accepted have any solid career plans besides trying again? I don't think my LOR will write me a third letter. Just wanted to rant and to see if anyone else who is in a similar situation has any advice on what to do.
