Just wondering if anyone has heard anything (accept/reject/interview/update of any kind) from this program...

Try Sacred Heart University, not sure how "affordable" or if there's space available, but they do have a summer class online.

I did the post-ba program at SUNY New Paltz, took additional SLP pre-reqs at Sacred Heart and Western Kentucky University, and did a few of the general ed ASHA requirements at 3 different community colleges!

I have a previous masters degree in another field and was under the impression it would help (gpa 3.8) but I asked 2 schools I was rejected from for a reason and both said it was because of my undergrad gpa (2.97) so I guess the fact I clearly am capable of doing well in a grad program didn't matter to them.

This is good advice, thank you! I'm nervous to call them but I think you're right.

I am currently waitlisted at 5 schools and have no acceptances yet. I took the bulk of my pre-reqs through a post-bac program, but each of these remaining schools has one or two random classes that weren't included. I've registered at various schools for the 5 classes I could possibly need to take, with a plan of dropping if I get rejected or only taking the ones I need for the school I end up going to. But now that May is approaching I'm realizing classes will start soon and I may not hear from the waitlists until later in May or even June. I will be absolutely crushed if I drop a class and then get an acceptance in June but don't have a pre-req filled. If I stay in all of the classes hoping for an acceptance, that means taking 5 classes over the summer while working full time (the most I've taken at once was 3 and that pretty hellish) and also the cost would be over $7,000 if I take all 5 at once! (Could put on credit card but that's pretty terrifying considering my chances here!) I am so torn about what to do and would love to hear from anyone with suggestions.

I'm on the waitlist for University of Vermont. I haven't heard about anyone getting accepted off it but I'm holding out hope!!!!
