Hello everyone, a little background..I graduated almost 3 years ago with my Bachelors in speech. Post graduation, I've worked as an ABA therapist since SLPA positions are unavailable in my area. Being an ABA therapist, I have seen so much growth within myself and my goal is to work as an SLP in an ABA facility.
I have applied to SIUC'S program for the past two years since it is within my area (southern indiana), and been waitlisted each time. I looking to apply to more online programs, but I am struggling to find them. I find myself so tempted to apply to programs such as emerson/nova but the cost, in addition to ungrad debt, really deters me. On one hand I am ready to dive headfirst into a program, the other I am considering my financial future. anyone else struggling with this? It's so difficult when you want something but can't figure out how to achieve it.
My GRE scores are..not great and my undergrad GPA over is 3.2, speech a 3.5. I am getting letters of rec this time around from 3 BCBA's at my work. Anyone have any program recommendations or application advice if you are/were in a similar situation?
