    I don't think that anyone received funding offers with admittance, at least I haven't heard of any one getting any info yet. I'm curious as well since the only way I'd be able to afford the school is with some sort of assistantship. I also got an invite to the open house. I wonder if it's a good idea to go for funding offers and such

    I'd imagine that you do. Your GPA is competitive! And applying to more school's just going to increase your chances. I've been accepted to 1/4 schools so far (the rest haven't been posted) and just interviewed for another. Stats: GPA 3.92, GRE 164V 144Q 5.0AW Other junk: Tutored grade school literacy for all four years, started tutoring for Spanish/ComDis classes this past year for my college, NSSLHA member and have held various positions (volunteer chair, secretary, and currently president), volunteer once a week in a mentoring program with middle school kids, and work over the summer as a summer camp counselor. In middle/high school and my first year of college I volunteered at a camp for kids with speech-language disorders which totaled about ~3,000 hours of volunteering over six years

    Nothing like that! They were questions about assessment/therapy. Not anatomy or something super specific!

    Alright fam here's the deets: Interview was brief and pretty laid back. They pick questions from a cup, some general questions (i.e. talk about a time you struggled academically, etc.) and some application. They picked only three for me, then I got to ask questions. That was pretty much it!

    i have my interview in a few minutes!!! I'll let you all know how it goes!
  6. snoves
    Yeah, that's how I feel too I was just hoping to get more insight lol! I did hear from someone that they were more personal questions (rather than asking you to detail out situations and such) so we'll see. I'm not too sure what the point of a 15 minute interview is. Best of luck to you!

    Hey y'all, Got an email today to sign up for a skype interview for WSU! It's next week and I'm excited to even get this far lol. Is there anyone who could tell me about the process? I'm not sure if they change it up every year or if it's usually the same, from what I've heard it's general interview questions (and the slots are only for 15 minutes) and nothing specifically speech-related but I'd like to be as prepared as possible! Thanks for any help!

    I've always wanted to work with children, either early intervention or grade/middle/high school age. But I'm trying not to pigeon-hole myself too early...I've never really had the opportunity to work with older populations, so I'm very excited to have the opportunity to explore that side of the field in grad school

    You have to send it to them by selecting them to be sent to the schools when filing. You should be able to go back and edit your FAFSA after filing though if you want it send to other schools.
  10. snoves
    I'd just fill it out ASAP. You should be able to send it to every school you're applying to, regardless of if you are accepted. It's better to do it early!
  11. snoves
    It really depends on you, but a lot of people recommend going to the place that is cheapest since there isn't any importance in school ranking in this field--if you have your degree, license, and are eligible to earn your CCC's, you'll find a job easily.
  12. snoves
    Thank you! Their speech program is in Tempe but I've heard good things about that city too lol. I'm just happy to be in somewhere!

    I genuinely haaaate CSDCAS and I am SO glad that I at least have one acceptance so I'll never have to use it again lmao. I don't understand how they can charge $125 for the service and demand so much from you. Cal State Apply (which uses the same exact system) is much more forgiving and half the price. I actually forgot to put in a class and when I emailed the schools they basically told me not to sweat it, they just go by the transcripts. Granted that means that all the time you spent putting in your classwork is redundant , but at least they were forgiving!
  14. snoves
    Thanks guys. I'll call them ASAP. Basically my official transcripts used numeric grades (4.0, 3.7, etc.) instead of letter grades (A, A-, etc.) but I put my grades in using the letter system. It was a dumb mistake on my part
  15. snoves
    Hey y'all, Maybe a dumb question, but my anxiety has shot up to level 1,000 in the past ten minutes. I accidently entered my grades in wrong (I put in letter grades instead of numerical. GOD I love CSDCAS) and has my application "undelivered." I already fixed my mistakes and resubmitted it to CSDCAS, but the school I'm applying (SJSU) to had their application due date as Feb. 1st. SJSU only requires that all documents be submitted and delivered to CSDCAS by the due date, not that the application be verified by that date. So should I not stress? Am I good? I just want to confirm I didn't waste $180 on TWO applications (which basically say the SAME SHIT but I digress) due to one little dumb mistake

    How are they even still up for accreditation from ASHA?? I know grad programs have been put on probation for less...
  17. snoves
    I did! That's probably why I already know Best of luck!
  18. snoves
    As far as ASHA goes I believe as long as you received a passing grade, you're fine. I'm not sure about individual programs though--that may be something to contact the department directly about!

    I first got it through their portal (it was posted around the 17th for me), but I also received an email last week that went to the email I used for my application they also sent a couple acceptance emails to my ASU student email!
  20. snoves
    Congrats on your acceptance! That's so exciting! I was accepted to ASU last week (!!!), still waiting to hear back from everywhere else. I'd be surprised if I heard back before March for most of my schools!

    The literacy tutor job was through my school, they provide some job opening postings in the community through their job portal. The day camp position was through a local posting on my city's parks and recs site. I would highly suggest looking at your city's recreation site to see if they have any job openings--my city runs both a day camp during the summer and an afterschool program
  22. snoves
    I currently work as a tutor for ComDis/Spanish classes for my college and as a literacy tutor at a grade school in an after school program. During the summers I usually work for the city at a day camp for children K-6th grade. I recently got accepted to a program, which maybe wasn't for my work experience, but I definitely think finding a position working with relevant populations can't hurt! As a Psych major ABA therapy would probably be a great fit for you! I'm not sure about licensing but I would definitely continue to look into it. I would also suggest nanny positions, which would also most likely be able to work around your schedule. Hope you find something that suits you!

    If it's just one file upload, they may want a personal statement that introduces your interests in the field AND that also answers the two prompts. I can totally see your confusion! I think emailing them will be your best bet! Hope they get back to you quickly!
  24. snoves
    I'm not applying there so I'm not sure when the app is due, but I would email the department just in case. Always better to be safe than sorry! Also usually on CSDCAS it gives you specfic places to submit the file(s). If there's three places to submit them that probably means they want a personal statement and each prompt.
  25. snoves
    i recently talked to some former grad studentst from Fresno State (which is one of those programs that states that you won't have any time to work), and almost all of them worked ~10-20 hours a week. Granted, that isn't a ton of hours, but it helps pay for rent/books/food. I think it's mostly just important to find a job that is willing to work with your schedule.
