Is Audiology considered a STEM major? I am applying for something and it is specifically for STEM majors. Is the PhD only considered STEM maybe or does anyone know if the Au.D. counts. I am aware it is a science, but there are specific majors under this umbrella. I read a super old article saying it was not, but since the article was super SUPER old, I didn't know if someone had more updated information. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hey there! I was invited to interview for the Audiology program at Western Washington. I am so excited for this interview! I was wondering if anyone here is part of that first guinea pig class from last year. I would love to know how you've enjoyed the program and faculty thus far and how funding is (opportunities for assistantships with it being a new program). I am really excited to interview for this school! Thanks in advance for your response.

@audioisdaway@go yay!! Are you going to open house next Friday? I’ll be driving there from NY. I’m excited to check out the campus!

Anyone else in this group accepted to West Virginia University?! Or an undergrad there?! I’m trying to figure out if they will be holding an open house for accepted students at some point. I am definitely interested in attending.

@stayhappy123 thank you SO MUCH for that advice and encouragement. I’m so nervous. Thank you and wishing you the best of luck on all of your schools!

I'm a bit of a non-traditional student who returned to school after 5 years. I didn't know what I wanted to do when I graduated high school. I got married and moved to where I now live in search of a 9-5 job. I got hired as an admin at a speech and hearing clinic. I knew nothing about speech and didn't know audiology even existed surprisingly. I saw what the Audiologists did and fell in love with it. I went back to school and am finishing my bachelors in Communication sciences and Disorders this May! It's been a long road for me but even though it took forever to find I out what I loved, I wouldn't change a thing in this crazy journey.

@AB121212 yay for being married AUD applicants and driving our hubbys NUTS! lol I am also freaking out about housing and job opportunities. It's so tough when you know you can't just get up and go anywhere. Literally his life is changing just as much as mine. Thank god he is so supportive. Best of luck to you and your search! I'm with ya girl!

Yay! More AUD students! Why are we such a minority on this site?! *sigh lol I just got invited to interview at NOVA Southeastern. I live in the Northeast, but decided I am going to physically go there for my interview. I like the idea of meeting the instructors and having a one on one interview (and finding a plane ticket today for $95 roundtrip felt like a sign!). I'm SUPER nervous, but extremely excited. @stayhappy123, do you mind letting me know what kinds of questions you were asked when you interviewed there and if you did an in person or Skype interview? Thank you so much.

I'm so glad you started this thread Katie! I am trying to find out the same for next week.

I also applied to West Virginia and am so nervous! Am I the only one who obsessed, went through last years acceptance/rejection results and made a calendar of around what time we should be hearing back from the schools? My first choice did theirs 2 weeks from today last year so I'm getting SO NERVOUS.

@katie64 Yes! The struggle is so real right now. Every time my cellphone email alert goes off, I have a mini panic attack. And usually it's some email about what's currently 20% off at Applebee's....smh -

An AUD (doctorate) is required to become an Audiologist in the United States so I don't believe you will have any luck finding Masters programs here. It's a bit confusing, but the undergraduate degree here is called "Communication Sciences and Disorders" which means us aspiring AUDs have to take the same classes as a speech language path student. I believe these majors were combined at the undergrad level since SLPs and AUDs work closely with each other in speech and hearing clinics. They are very different from each other of course. In the doctorate program in graduate school, you will not be taking speech classes. You will be focusing on AUD courses to prepare you for the field. We are however required at most schools to have about 10 hours of slp clinicals and I think SLP's have to do the same. But that's pretty short. Hope this helps!
