I live in Texas. I was accepted to a leveling program but financial aid will not cover since I had to apply as a non-degree seeking student. Will financial aid cover if I go back and start over with an associate's? Also, if I go back and get an associate's, I would have to go back and major in CSD for a bachelor's (essentially starting over?)? How long did it take for you to go back and get your associates and bachelor's? and how much longer do you have left of graduate school?

Hi, I am having difficulty making a decision about graduate school. I graduated with a bachelor's in education but I would love to pursue a career as a Speech Language Pathologist. Because my degree is in something other than SLP, I am an out-of-field leveling student. Should I go back and get an associate's degree in SLPA and THEN pursue SLP at a graduate program? Or would I have to retake classes to get a bachelor's after the associate and then apply for the master's program? Or could I get my associate in SLPA and then go straight to a grad program since I already have a bachelor's? or would it make more sense to go ahead and take leveling courses and then apply to grad school for SLP and not go back and get an associate's degree in SLPA? I'm so sorry if this is confusing. I was accepted to take leveling courses at UNT in Denton but I would not be able to get financial aid and that's another big reason why I feel like I should get an associate and then go to grad school. Although would I be able to receive financial aid in getting an associate's after I have already received a bachelor's? Thank you in advance. I am also in Texas. I essentially would like to end up with an SLP license. How long would it take if I went back and got my associates.
