Hi fellow SLPs to be!
Out of curiosity, just for life-planning in general... Does anyone have an idea how long one could possibly wait between finishing the undergrad COMD degree/leveling courses and then going to grad school? At what point to grad programs want you to re-take those leveling courses if it has been too long?
I'm just not sure if I'll be in the right place financially, or with my job, or family planning stuff to go STRAIGHT to grad school. Right now I'm proceeding as that will be the case-- I'll go straight to grad school-- but I just want to know my options. I don't want to have to take these leveling classes ALL OVER AGAIN in, like, four years. I'm sure each program is different, but in general, is there an option to wait before grad school?
Anyone else have experience with this?
For reference: I have a prior BS and am in my early 30s. I support myself and my husband, and I have too many student loans to depend on living off more loans for the next 2 years. I'm applying for Fall '13.)
