I’m in the same boat as you! As of now, I’m planning on taking my bio and chem class at a local community college to save money.. and then taking my one speech pre-requisite, Aural Rehabilitation, through Utah State University online. I looked into UW-Eau Claire as well and got the same information- that they can’t guarantee a spot since they go to their undergrad and post-bac students first. Then I looked into Utah State (which was actually cheaper than the other schools I was browsing) and the registration was SUPER easy and went smooth. Definitely recommend checking them out. I’m almost positive they have the classes you need! Hope that helps!
I got accepted there and they did a little online open house sort of thing where they just posted videos about the campus and some current students answered some FAQs. It is a beautiful campus and people have said that the faculty is extremely nice and helpful. You only go to class 2 times per week, but its for like 6 hours and then you have clients on the days you don't have class. There's a private clinic on campus, a preschool they work at and the convent with the nuns. Its a Catholic school, so if you're Catholic it will be perfect. The program is also 5 semesters, which is nice and you start clinic right away. I believe you get to pick your externships. The only downsides are that its in South Bend and idk if you're from Indiana or are familiar with South Bend, but it is not the nicest area, although where the campus is located it is a nice area, just other parts of South Bend are not. The other downside is that it is extremely expensive. Let me know if you have any other questions and I can try and help!
