    Thankfully I emailed my top choice that I’m waitlisted at and told them I’m still very interested and will 100% attend if I get in off the waitlist and they told me I’m “very high” on the list. Which makes me feel like they’re confident I’ll get in off the waitlist, I don’t think they’d give me false hope about it

    Yeah, i dont think they would give you false hope! I wish you the best of luck!

    I am a second-year applicant and this is what happened to me last year. I got my rejection email from the waitlist of:

    -Indiana State on May 3rd (sent out an email on April 29 with update)

    -Duquesne on June 2 (sent out an email on April 19th saying they are keeping their waitlist open)

    -Cleveland State University June 20th (no contact before then)

    As for advice, i drove myself crazy checking this site everyday and im doing it again this year. I know its not always good for me but i can't help but try and feel like going on this site gives me the hope or information i need

    April 15th on a Sunday?

    in The April 15th is this week! Freak-out forum.

    Cleveland State waitlists everyone who meets the minimum admissions requirements (or at least they used to a year ago). If you get an email saying you are high on the waitlist then you'll likely get in. I'm not sure how far down the waitlist they usually go until they fill the class up but some people get their acceptances in July. 

    Thanks for your help

    Why am I not getting chosen

    Trust me I feel this, I applied my senior year and did not get in anywhere.  All of my roommates got into SLP graduate programs and I had to really think about what to do with myself.  I ended up working at a preschool for 2 years, considered numerous other careers and ultimately realized that just because I didn't get in the first round didn't mean I had to change my career path.  Long story short, I retook some courses I didn't do that great in at a college near me.  I was able to do really well in these courses, which showed  I was determined and motivated.  I ended up being accepted at the program, which has an amazing reputation and now I am happier then ever that things didn't "work out" according to my original plan.  I know it is hard to hear when you are going through it but everything really does work out how it should, just persevere and remain positive!

    Do you mind telling where you got into/ended up?

    Salus and Cleveland State - salus kind of gave me a decision, they said my application is still active but i wasn't being offered an interview at this time. Pretty just hoping to get off one of my 5 waitlists

    I  was told they'd be sending out answers this week. Yesterday my portal said rejection and then a few hours later it said decision in process so idk what that means

    I finally got it to load and still says decision is in progress

    Hi I am an Audiology applicant and I was curious of what kinds of internships we can get since we can’t do much with a communication Disorders bachelor’s degree?

    you can look into local universities that have research grants and get an internship/volunteer

    I'm an out of major applicant; I have a 3.55 GPA; my GRE is V156 Q145 W4. (Before applying I had scheduled a visit with an admissions staff member and they told me that my stats were within the range of past accepted students. At the meeting I had talked about my concerns about lack of experience because I am switching careers but they did not seem concerned; he said that many students come in with little to no real world experience.

    I suspect I got the interview in part because I had shown interest in the program back in Oct, long before I applied, and because of my essay. (At my interview the admissions counseler who reviewed my file complimented that my statement was well written.) Still, it clearly it wasn't given much weight beyond securing an interview, haha. 

    Ultimately, I think I didn't click well enough with the staff member who interviewed me. I was nervous and it showed. Also, I know a couple out of major applicants from my pre-graduate program who were accepted before I had my interview, so I assume that may have played a factor too.

    that stinks, but I wish you the best of luck getting off the waitlist!! I thank you again for taking the time to answer me!
