I couldn't be there, but please let me know your thoughts!

Just saw this posted on the results page: Emerson College Speech Language Pathology, Masters (F19) Other via Other on 19 Mar 2019 19 Mar 2019 report spam To anyone still waiting on Emerson responses I emailed them this morning and they said "We are still in the process of releasing decisions and will be doing so throughout the next week." So don't lose hope just yet

Thank you!

Also, please decline as soon as you know you are not interested in attending, so that schools can send out more acceptances before April 15th if possible! I am still waiting on hearing back from a program (Emerson), since they seem to be waiting to hear back from accepted students before accepting others or adding people to their waitlist.

I have declined acceptances at Temple University, CUNY Lehman College, the College of Saint Rose, and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I'm still deciding between three programs, so I'll be declining others in the future. Hope this helps someone!

I haven't heard either, so I'm assuming it's a rejection. I saw on the results page that someone called Emerson, but the person from the program wasn't able to confirm anything other than they had not been accepted. Emerson couldn't say whether they were wait-listed or rejected. My guess is we'll only hear right by April 15th or after it. Maybe they're not making more decisions until they hear back from other applicants? At any rate, glad I'm not alone!

This might be a stupid question, but is this true for both public and private grad programs?

I'm so glad!! Getting an acceptance from the first school is the most reassuring feeling! I'm currently trying to make decisions now, and hopefully you'll be in the same place very soon?

Thanks for the information! How did you feel about IHP having an extra summer? Does that make it more difficult to find a CF?

I'm still laughing about that. Love it! Have fun next weekend(:

Have you checked out the info on the ASHA website for state reciprocity? That's where I started. I don't know much about CA licensure, since I'm from the Northeast, but NY has very strict requirements for teaching licensure along with your c's to practice. Have you checked on ASHA to see what CA requires and if it's similar to the NY requirements? (For example, I found out from there that if I want to move back to my state, I need to have a certain number of hours at a public school, which plenty of states don't require, so I'm talking with the externship coordinator at a program to make sure I'll have that ability.)

Thank you!! I very well might end up there, so that would be great?

No, I just got an email saying I was accepted. But i was surprised they sent the email out so late Friday afternoon/evening (around 6:30pm by me)... Maybe we'll hear something about funding next week?

Which schools did you apply to? Like slplo said, whether or not you should have heard back depends on which programs you applied to! Have you looked on gradcafe to see if others have heard back from these programs?

Hi Kandykane! Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't LIU accredited, whereas Yeshiva is only a candidate right now? If accurate, to me, that holds some weight, because that means LIU is more likely to have the connections you'll need for externships and beyond. I remember being very impressed with Yeshiva's class selections. I don't know much about LIU, so I can't comment on that, although I would think about where I'd want to live as a grad student and where I'd want to get my externships (aka, how commutable will it be to them from both where you live and where the school is located). If you want to do your externships in Manhattan, Yeshiva might be more convenient, although apartment availability in the city would be very difficult! Have you visited both programs? At the end of the day, I think a lot of it depends on figuring out exactly what you're looking for, whether that's classes, an on-campus clinic (my understanding is Yeshiva doesn't have much of one), where you're living, and where you'd want to be working. Also, here's somebody's perspective on their visit to Yeshiva that I saw a few days back. Hope this helps!

I know that some states have arrangements where you can have lower tuition based on the relationships between the state you're from and the state where the school is located, so maybe that's what the person was referring to? My understanding is that there is an agreement for programs in the Midwestern states and another one for the West Coast states. If this person was correct, perhaps there is an agreement like this between Texas and Oklahoma? (Do they count as the Midwest? As a East Coaster, my perception of what counts as "Midwest" is probably very skewed, haha!)

Is anyone going to the MGH IHP open house next Saturday? I won't be able to go but would love to hear what anyone finds out while there!

I loved Emerson when I visited!! Enjoy, it is an amazing program as well and I am very excited for you?

My understanding is that it depends on the school! For example, one of the schools I was accepted to included information as to how to apply for a graduate assistantship in the acceptance email; another school said in their letter that they had sent out assistantship offers to some applicants already, and then April 15th, the school would send other applicants offers based on who had accepted admissions. But I've also been accepted to programs where assistantship applications are totally separate from the admissions process, and those deadlines vary if they are before or after the 15th. One of my top choice schools doesn't offer any assistantships until after the 15th and they know who is in the cohort. Which is really tough, because obviously funding is a big part of my decision! So, I really feel you!! Which schools are you looking into for fellowships and assistantships? Did your responses from the schools include any information about them?

y i k e s that's rough.

I saw that! Didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Have you called to find out about Temple? I know that they seemed to have sent out acceptances in waves, so there might be more coming!

Good for you! At the end of the day, you've got to do what works best for you!! Which program will you be attending instead?

Which document do you see this in?

Did anyone else just get an email from MGH about tuition costs? I'm pretty sure my sudden gasp at the price made the guy next to me very concerned.?
