Business casual or nice jeans and a sweater? I'd prefer not to end up over dressed, but I do NOT want to be the only one in jeans. I feel I was the most overdressed . I wore a blazer, black slacks, heels...haha. Most people I saw wore business casual, and everyone looked well put together and awesome! I don't recall seeing anyone in jeans...could be wrong! I will say that at least two faculty I met with personally actually mentioned that my appearance "showed I was ready" for the professionalism and maturity that the profession called for...but I'm a nontrad student (university lecturer) who's doing a career change, so it's pretty standard for me at this point!

I'm trying to compile a list of places to go when I'm there Sorry! Just saw this! No, I'm not from Chicago...just chose a lot of Illinois schools for program caliber and to be close to family! Hope you had a good visit! We probably were next to each other at some point and didn't even realize it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of the visits I've taken had everyone in preppy casual to business casual. No one in jeans. I tried to not stick out as over or underdressed by wearing nice slacks, blouse and shoes with a denim jacket, but ended up feeling a little underdressed. I'm going to trade it out for a blazer next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUD2b Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I'm from Canada so i don't really know much about certain universities in the states. Can someone tell me how reputable Nova Southeastern University is? Is it seen as an easy school? is it usually people's safety net? Just any information will be helpful. Thanks!

AB121212 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I confirmed my acceptance to Ohio State! The sense of relief in having made a final decision is incredible. I don't think there are many of us here, but does anyone know if there's a FB page yet? I can start it if necessary (just have to figure out how...).

Definitely struggling with picking which program I want to attend (they all have pros and cons). Feel free to message me if you have strategies you're using/used if you've already made a decision. I was accepted into 3 programs and I'm having a difficult time deciding. one suggestion would be instead of doing pros and cons make a list of things that you want out of your program and see how the schools chalk up. I was also asking around about what schools give moderate funding. AMP´d-AuD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futureAuD22 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Finally heard back from all of my schools but now I have to make a decision and I am having the most difficult time! Bloomsburg's accreditation is currently on probation for their on time graduation rates. Does anyone know how this would affect a student if Iwent there? This is my cheapest option so I would like to keep it in the running. Anyone else accepted to the Long Island consortium, Bloom, or Salus? I was informed that Salus does not have GA positions but they do have student workers but this was more of a negative for me because it would not be enough support. Has anyone thought about working while in grad school? debating options for that as well! Accepted: Bloomsburg | St. John's, Hofstra, Adelphi Consortium| Salus Waitlisted: Montclair Rejected: none Withdrawn: UW SLindo1993 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The school sounds so impressive because they accept more people than the usual class size of like 10-15 people. But I know Salus does rolling admissions. What were your stats? Do you know if Salus is less competitive than other programs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futureAuD22 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I saw the campus and really loved it! They have a lot of booths just for students to practice in! And the set up is nice. Gpa: 3.6 GRE: verbal 150, quantitative 146, writing 3.5 ! I don’t think they are super competitive because of the 32 person cohort and lower ranking. But I heard good things about their program. When i had my interview i learned they don’t go too deeply into CIs which is something I’m really interested in. Goodluck and I’m sure you’ll get accepted!

The tuition for Salus is what is keeping me from choosing it. Bloomsburg is much more manageable for me financially, but you're right, the accreditation being on probation is worrying me.

FutureAuD8 Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 AHHH April 15th is only 8 days away and I still haven't made a definitive decision. One second I think I choose Ohio State, but then I look at the new facilities other programs offer and second guess my decision. Does anyone have any experience/opinions with older facilities versus newer ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
