I have heard back from all my schools except for St. Johns. I honestly think they lost my application. I started to fill it out in October and then received an email saying they were changing their online application in November. I freaked and finished my application and submitted it before they changed applications (which I called and they said I could do). I then received an email early December saying they were looking at my application. However, shortly after that I got an email with the link for a portal and when I logged on it said I had no application. I called them and argued with the lady in admissions because she couldn't find my application either. She eventually said she found it (she was spelling my name wrong). I'm not sure if anyone else has had this issue. I have no intentions of going there but am still curious of a response. If I don't hear by May I think I am going to call again to see what the issue is. It is frustrating to go through the application process and pay money to hear no response.

I was highly considering applying and was going to pick my school based off of which programs had the scholarship. I decided against it because when I went to apply the application said placements for monolingual slps was only in the Bronx. Before when I checked there was the option of all the boroughs and several districts. My issue is that since they changed it that means by the time we graduate and are looking for a job it can change again and you are locked in to wherever you are needed. If you are okay with that then I think it is a great opportunity and leaves you out of debt! I only wanted to work in certain areas so I decided it was not the best fit for me.

Good Luck on your interview! I looked a lot into all the programs over the weekend and I am 90% sure I am going to pick Molloy instead of LIU!! Their deadline to decide on my letter is March 15th so I am trying to make my choice soon.

That was my worry, I had a meeting with the clinic director and she said that they had a peer mentor program in their clinic. So basically we are paired with second year grad students on the same client and then we work together on it and the 2nd year student is slowly eased out. And I applied to nearly all the same schools you have! I was accepted to Molloy and Adelphi. I interviewed at SHU, and am still waiting to hear back from St. Johns and Hofstra. I am just having such a hard time weighing the pros and cons

I got in to LIU Post along with a few other schools. I think it is where I want to go but I am nervous to commit. Is anyone in their program already or know someone who is that could help ease my anxiety?

Nope, my portal still looks the same as before I was accepted. It has the date I submitted my application along with a checklist (all the checks are green). I received my acceptance packet in the mail.

I have not received an email from a graduate counselor, but I received my acceptance yesterday. I was planning on calling the department tomorrow because I did want to meet and talk with someone about the program and facilities. Should I wait to see if I get an email or should I call? I dont want to bombard the office.
