Well I know a lot of people around Boston do sub-lets and especially around the schools there are a lot of people who do a semester abroad and need people to fill their apartment specifically for a semester. Def takes some coordinating but its pretty common around here to get a subletter or be a subletter

Is it possible to do some of your clinical externships in a different area? For example, I was accepted to UNH ( University of New Hampshire) and they have some clinical placements in the Boston/Massachusetts area.

I wouldnt worry too much about the accreditation status! I have heard that you will still be eligible to take the praxis and get your C's even if something did happen with the accreditation.

When is the meeting? I had filled out the google form but never heard about the meeting after that

well I think the worcester deposit was only 200, so if you do get into UNH after putting the deposit, the worst that happens is only losing a little! But i feel ya , I was waitlisted at 4 schools.. and I havent heard at all from UNH so im not sure thats a good sign for me there, lol

I think im like 75 percent sure I would go to Worcester. I also got into Emerson but its literally more than double the cost... and I really don't want to be in a ton of debt.. since also i think were about to enter a crazy recession lol. But I am hoping to hear back to see if I got any grants or anything

got the official acceptance letter today from worcester!!

oo thanks for the heads up!

Yes i got the letter in the mail as well! kinda unclear. it says welcome to worcester state and gave an ID number, but didnt really mention being admitted/ SLP lol but im guessing that means im in if it says welcome to WSU?

I am still waiting to hear from 5 schools, so youre def not alone! I havent heard from UNH, UMASS, worcester State, or Bridgewater State, or URI

I did email worcester and they said they would be mailing letters in 1-2 weeks.. very vague response lol

I know some schools send out information in rounds. I did already hear back from Northeastern that I was waitlisted, but it cant hurt to call or email!

I applied to 10, and have been accepted at 1, and wait listed 4 so far. If possible, I would probably only apply to 5, just because i have already spent thousands of dollars applying between CSDCAS fees, schools personal app fees, sending GRE to every school, and sending two transcripts to every school

Has anyone heard from Worcester or Bridgewater ?

I was accepted at Emerson! Did anyone hear about funding tho? I am excited to be accepted but nervous about the cost, and didnt hear anything about any scholarships or aide

waitlisted at BU.. hoping for an acceptance off the waitlist

I grew up in the suburbs of Boston and I currently live in Boston. As far as cost of living, it is pretty expensive. I live with 3 roommates in Brighton and we each pay around 830 per person, not with utilities. I think those prices are pretty average for popular cities. There is affordable housing, you just have to have roommates, and be willing to take the train for 30 mins to get downtown. As far as getting around, there is the subway( The T) and BU is right on the green line. There are also a lot of bus lines. It seems like they try and accommodate if you want a clinical placement accessib

yeah i asked current students from all programs, and all of the people I asked said they all heard about 2 weeks after the interview last year

Did you guys send thank you emails? I didn't get contact info during the interview but I found some of the professors emails online

I also interviewed for all 3, I think they are all good choices. I didn't love Emerson's setting per say, but I think they all have strong programs, and good clinical placement opportunities.

Just got offered an interview at BU today!

I havent heard from Northeastern yet either

Have you heard from BU about interviews yet?

Also got invited to Interview! so would love any tips!!

feeling very stressed.. especially since some of my applications arent marked as complete . I have two schools that I have tried to call/ email and have not heard back. I sent my GRE scores over 6 weeks ago and they still say not received.. so not sure my application is even getting looked at.. very stressed.
