  1. 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.
  2. I don't see a problem in accepting then declining later on if you get into Akron. I heard good things about their online program. My friend loves it. Also, if you do end up declining, they will just add someone from the waitlist and that someone will be very happy, so no worries!
  3. I had a friend who had 3 C's and got into grad school because of her experience and LOR. Don't give up.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!
  6. 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.
  7. 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)
  8. Oh, wow! August seems so far away haha and no I haven't. I'm kind of scared since I know some schools don't like talking about waitlist rankings. Thanks for the info!
  9. You got into grad school for a reason. Don't doubt yourself and stop stressing! Enjoy your summer.
  10. How long do they give you to notify them your decision?
  11. Good luck! Hopefully, you will hear some good news soon
  12. Has anyone been waitlisted? I didn't get a phone call, so I'm assuming I either got waitlisted or rejected.
  13. 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.
  14. 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!
  15. I got wailisted at St. Mary's and Edinboro
  16. Yeah, same! How strange. Maybe this is a good thing! haha
  17. 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.
