@pumpkinbat my heart hurts,but I’m so happy for you guys ❤️ I just hope if I’m waitlisted,it’s not a long wait. I like their clinic and faculty so much. They were also trying to establish an abroad program
So talking to a few first years during the tour day, it seemed like there were quite a few got in off of the waitlist so you would probably still have a decent shot. I for one hope you get in too! I'm so stoked! Also, did you know they're moving the classrooms? I think the clinic will remain where it is on the UALR Campus but classes will be on the UAMS Campus 10 min away. I'm kinda glad because I feel like it will be a medical atmosphere and we will get to work more with other professions maybe?

To everyone who has applied to UAMS:
i had received an email back from the Dept of the Program and he had told me
"As you may know, January 15th was the deadline, but we wait until after February 15th to give CSDCAS time to verify transcripts. The Audiology faculty has already met to review applications, and we now have applicants rank-ordered for offers of admission to be approved by the UAMS College of Professions office. We will be reaching out to applicants soon with either a letter of offer, and notification of being placed on the waiting list."
I had not gotten an interview..but i did schedule to see them end of September last year to meet faculty,the program, and some of the students...so i'm hoping that counts as my interview portion..
we should be getting notified real soon though!@AuD(ream) I reached out and was told they would not be doing interviews. Not sure why.

So out of curiosity, when you guys first started undergrad, were you always intending to do the audiology track? Or were you originally going for SLP/something else?
I started out just with linguistics, added the speech&hearing science major with the intent to do SLP (because I didn't think I'd easily find an actual linguistics job), then accidentally fell in love with all my audiology classes....
OMG it is almost exactly the same for me! I started out with Anthropology and was disappointed when I found out my school had limited options for linguistic anthropology. So then I added a Spanish Major and then a Linguistic minor when the English Department expanded during my senior year. I graduated, started pursuing a teaching license for Spanish and realized that wasn't for me and I was just doing it because it seemed like the next logical step. I thought about SLP because I had always enjoyed tutoring and then I could just combine that with linguistics. So now, I'm a year into all of the prerequisites I need in order to apply for a Masters SLP program and realize I'd rather to Audiology.
After thinking about it though it makes sense, I always loved phonetics more than morphology and syntax and when tutoring, I hated doing ELA and always volunteered for the STEM kids.

Hi there!
This year I'm only applying to UAMS in Little Rock where I live. I am a non-traditional student who graduated in 2014 but I was going back to do prerequisite course work for SLP. Decided to change tracks and go ahead and apply for AuD (fewer prereqs). In the process of applying now though I am irrevocably hooked and invested in getting into school for the fall. I'm still taking some SLP classes for the spring though just in case I don't get in.
