2013 SLP Admissions Thread!
badgerslp replied to midnight's topic in Speech-Language Pathology Forum
Anyone receive scholarship information from Washington? Or know when to expect it (if we're lucky enough to be one of them)? -
Are you an ETA? There's already a pretty active Facebook group out there!
-
Did you get the confirmation e-mail from them a while ago? If you did, then no need to worry about it being lost in the mail!
-
I'm also jealous! But I spent a summer there a few years go. It's an absolutely beautiful and charming country. Definitely one of Europe's best kept secrets haha.

I agree, they are asking a lot. But, they are also giving you 800 Euros a month, so they have a right to ask for any information they see pertinent. There are certain positions and jobs in life where you'll have to disclose uncomfortable things in order to reap the benefits.

If by Liz Lemon you mean a fictional character who just so happens to mimic my personality to a T, then yes. -

Thanks for the thoughts, everyone! I'll talk to my program next week and gather their thoughts on it. But if I do go with the Fulbright, I'd be teaching in Germany. -

Well, I need some advice. This morning I was accepted to teach English abroad next year through the Fulbright program. I've also been accepted to my top choice school, where their website says they do not allow deferrals. Definitely did not expect both to happen. Anybody have any guidance, thoughts, wisdom, 2 cents, etc, etc? -

You might e-mail and try and find out if they can give you a relative position on the wait list. I know one school that wait listed me said if I get in, I'll have 48 hours to decide. If that's the case across the board, it would probably be wise to visit before you find out, just in case. -

Hmm, that's tough. I suppose theoretically you can accept to more than one school. But obviously you'll have to awkwardly deny one at a later date. And there's always the risk that you could end up getting funding at both or at neither. I'd say really take a look at what you're considering and contemplate if you would be ok going to one without funding? What schools are you deciding between? You have a lot of great options! -

Anybody know if Washington's program starts at the earlier September date or later? -

I'm completely baffled by how schools decide to accept/reject/wait list people. How can I one week be accepted to a top school and the next wait listed by a virtually un-ranked safety. And on top of that, inconsistencies between being accepted/rejected from similar programs. Just makes me wonder and doubt the well-ranked programs that accepted me. Anyone have any insight? -

But still a little gratifying to see the schools that rejected you drop a few spots -

Has anybody who was accepted to UW's Core program heard about scholarships/funding? -

This has been a really weird experience. My dad has warned me that graduate school really boils down to luck and randomness...and I think so. Rejected from low ranked schools, accepted from high ranked ones, and decisions for people on here...it would be cool if we could all connect in 3-5 years and see if all our worrying and freaking out was worth it haha. -

Sorry, I meant I asked her a question via e-mail. I received my letter today in the mail. I'm in Madison though, so mine probably came quicker because of that.
