Speech2019

Hi everyone, I am going to NYU this fall for the CSD masters program, and was wondering if there is an active fb account page for the Fall of 2019 cohort? I’m curious because I am going to live in Manhattan and need to find a roommate(: Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Hi! I’m from New York City. I am applying to 10 schools: NYU, CSUN, Boston University, Emerson, Northeastern, Adelphi, Hunter, Syracuse, Mercy, and Hofstra. My biggest concern as of right now is my low GRE score. Unfortunately, I am not a good standardized test taker and I’m hoping it doesn’t mess with my chances of getting into graduate school. On the flip side, I currently have a 3.76 cumulative gpa and a 4.0 gpa in my linguistics major and SLP minor. I am currently a lab manager in the motor speech lab at my school and a research assistant in the prosody and intonation lab. With this opportunity I have under my belt 3 years of research and conference experience. Also, I’ve had the opportunity to obtain clinical and observational hours in a hospital environment under rehabilitation and in a public school with hands on speech therapy. I’m literally terrified I won’t get into any graduate schools considering the application process is extremely intimidating and not to mention competitive. I’m extremely interested in CSUN, but fear I won’t get accepted. Does anyone know what their criteria is when accepting prospective students? Also, which part of their application is heavily focused on? Lastly, good luck to everyone applying! It truly is arduous work?
