What were your scores if you don't mind me asking. The last email I received was from them asking me to send in my observation hours. I wonder when should we expect to hear anything?
Verbal: 147, Quantitative: 145, Writing: 4. They told me they recommend a combined score of 294 and writing of 4, so I am close. But yes, she also asked me for my observation hours. I don't think they even had a section in CSDCAS to upload them lol I just sent them what UCF sent me and emailed her back. She hasn't replied back to me though.

They did not (which os a bot odd come to think of it).
Yeah, they emailed me saying that they received my CSDCAS and asked me if I was wanting to retake the GRE again because they were a bit low or if I wanted to send it off with the scores that I had, but they didn't give me a deadline either. I feel like they didn't receive many applications.

For anyone interested in this program, I got an email today stating that they are still accepting applications due to an issue with CSDCAS (I guess they closed the application on the 1st even though it should have been open until the 13th?).
I won't be applying as I've accepted elsewhere, but thought I'd share in case anyone wanted the option. Although I'm not sure if this only applies to those that started theie apps in CSDCAS preciously, as the email did have a link to follow to apply.
Thank you the information!

I was wondering if there is anyone currently in a grad program (either part or full time) and working. I'm starting my online master's program this summer, and I got offered a 20-30 hour part time job as an admin assistant. I don't know if I can handle working that many hours and balancing my course work... Still need the work though because I know my grad school and bills can't pay itself! haha. Currently, I work as a behavior therapist in ABA and I want to leave that job because it can be draining and I'd only work 4-6 hours a day.
I wanna hear your experiences and insights
I personally haven't but I have heard of people being able to with like three jobs while doing an online master's program. I have a friend who is doing the FSU distance program and she typically doesn't have her lectures online until later in the evening I believe, so that gives her plenty of time to have a job during the day. Granted I don't know how it is like once you start clinicals.

I’m just hoping it’s a good sign!
I'm hoping it is as well! I think maybe a lot of people are scared to apply because it's not fully accredited yet maybe?

Thanks!! CSDCAS portal said April 1st; that's why I asked.

I applied to them for the fall. I think they are in the process of getting their accreditation.
Ah ok! Have you heard back from them or anything?

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences graduate program? I seem as though they are looking for candidacy to be accredited? I am not too sure. Any info will help!
Thank you!

Hi everyone!
I was wondering if anyone has heard anything from Jackson State Universtiy? Applications were due at the beginning of March. I've yet to hear anything, but I saw someone posted in the admission results that they got accepted into the program already.
Thank you!

Really? I just copied this off their communication disorders website.
Admission and Notification of Admission
Application Deadlines

Fall - April 15

Spring - October 15
NOTE: CSD deadlines are different than the published Graduate School deadlines
Hmm strange. They must have changed the date then because before it was February 15th. Thank you!

Yeah for fall it was in February.

Has anyone heard back from Alabama A&M Universtiy or know anything about the program? I haven't heard of many people talking about this program. Any information will help a lot! I sent my application back in the very beginning of February.

Ayyo. I got into a handful of schools with a low GPA. Even my last 60 weren't great. I'm gonna level with you - your GRE isn't stellar. It's okay, but in my experience, you have to make up for your low GPA in some numerical regard, not just by being a standout human being with lots of experience. I'd retake the GRE, but study your butt off to ensure some numbers go up. This is an easier number to boost than your GPA, for obvious reasons, like your GPA has 100+ credits factoring in. Adding a handful of As won't necessarily help.
Another tip, and probably the best advice I got during the process, is apply smart. Don't apply to Iowa or Vanderbilt. Look at edfind, find schools (all over the country. don't get picky) that take lower GPAs, look at places that legitimately share your interests, and apply to a bunch. I applied to 15. I do not think this was too many.
Of course, with a low GPA, the rest of your application has to be near perfect. That's okay. Get good recommendations, write your LOR, then have 5 people smarter than you edit it. When you mention your low GPA, do so, but briefly. Then explain that you're on an upward trajectory, and you're even more motivated to kill it. Don't focus on the bad.
Good luck, let me know if I can help more.
Thank you so much! I am definitely going to take the GRE again to try and get it up! I really appreciate the advice!

Were there some circumstances that led to your low GPA? I think schools might be concerned about the last 60 hours, as generally thats when students buckle down, are focused, and are taking more CSD courses. If you have a legitimate reason you may be able to explain that in your personal statement, but remember grad school is going to be difficult. Be careful with your wording/reasoning because they may see it as poor time management/stress management.etc - all skills a grad student would need. If you have anything below a B in a CSD course you should probably retake it. Good luck.
I was going through medical problems my last two semesters. Thank you for the advice! I'm definitely going to retake some classes and address it in my personal statement.

I think the lsu schools say they do on their website. But i know plenty of ppl who are out of state and got into Louisiana schools. Where are you looking to apply?
I'm thinking of Southeastern Louisiana, Southern University and A&M College, University of Louisiana - Lafayette, and University of Louisiana - Monroe.
-
Hi! I have read that some Louisiana schools gave preference to Louisiana residents. Does anyone know which schools they know for sure that does?

A friend of mine has and she re-took classes through Utah State and Eastern New Mexico.
Thank you!
Do you know if she did it as a Post-Bacc or as a non-degree seeking student?
-
Hi! I was wondering if there was any way to take post-bacc classes even though I already have a Bachelor's in CSD. I am trying to repeat some classes that I received lower grades in and I was wondering if there is any way in doing so even though I have already graduated. Has anyone had an experience with this?
University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences??

I live in Florida! That would make sense. I've been emailing the admissions lady and she seems very nice!
