  1. I'm at CSUN! I'm really glad I choose it, too!
  2. Some professors will still give you a Lor if you send them your resume and a brief overview of how you did in their class. I'd ask all your professors what their policy about lors are.
  3. Find a way of making the negatives positive. Struggles with grades=never gave up through adversity. Gap year or 5= experience in the work force. Find the positive, then it's not explaining, it's casting yourself in a good light!
  4. I only had professional lors and I was accepted. I talked to the program contact, showed it in my resume, and worked the explainations into my statement. I am an SLPA as well, and couldn't attend full time grad school when I finished my bachelor's because of my family situation. My professors didn't recognise me after 6 years
  5. I didn't have an academic Lor with the last school I applied to and I got in to CSUN
  6. Yeah I got accepted to Emerson and CSUN. I am hoping I don't have any prerequisites to take for CSUN, as that is who I'm going with.
  7. Awesome, congrats! Never give up! Never say die!
  8. Who is an SLPA and going to grad school? I can't keep up now, I'm worried I'm going to struggle this spring. Granted, I'm writing progress reports, so I'm feeling quite overwhelmed right now...
  9. Is it standard to require someone to retake their prerequisite courses after 5 years?
  10. I have to do part time because I need to work full-time. So no matter what I do I'm going to have to pick the longer program.
  11. I'd wait to see your writing score. Sounds like you are strong everywhere else. You might want to redo it if you can find the time and money. My quantitative was 141 and I still, by a miracle, got into my second and third choices. It is possible.
  12. It's probably going to mostly be a financial decision. I mean, I want to be a good clinician, but all good schools can teach me me to be that, I don't need a name. Scholarships would be nice, though.
  13. There are pluses about each program but my gut is saying CSUN after I prayed . Thanks guys I'm going to wait and see if Emerson offers anything substantial, I have a bit of time I only have an unofficial offer from CSUN. Waiting to hear more.
  14. I would say to just be concise. They have a ton of these to read. Make sure you stand out, I would definitely add what you learned from your research experience and how that will make you a better SLP.
  15. Thanks! Yeah, CSUN is 100% online and Emerson has two 4 day weekends in the summers. Emerson costs so much more, too. They provide a lot of support, though, according to themselves. CSUN admittedly put a lot of the burden of obtaining placements on you. My heart is sort of set on CSUN, because they offered first, but if Emerson could get the cost down I might be tempted.
  16. She just mentioned the possibility of scholarships, not of their actual existence. I think the admissions advisor was trying to persuade me. My brain hurts. I now have to reweigh the pros and cons!
  17. My supervisor and I collaborate on session plans. I prepare my own, but she reviews them. We have to make sure we are targeting the objectives the correct number of times, we share the caseload. For instance "over 3 sessions" is a phrase you might see in some iep goals.
  18. There improbable has happened. I have been accepted to 2 schools. How do you decide? It was Emerson and CSUN both online. Emerson costs more but wants to look into scholarships. Ack! Idk!
