U of AZ

[hellooo]

I recently got accepted into UA's program, but was wondering if anyone could give me insight about the school?  I mainly applied for their bilingual extension, but does anyone know what the rest of the department is like?  Are professors generally knowledgeable and willing to help?  Are classes and the clinic located around the same area of campus?  I live on the East Coast so I don't think I'll be able to visit the campus so any information would be extremely helpful.  Thanks!

Hello! I visited and it is my top choice school! I met with Dr. Fabiano-Smith, who is the director of the bilingual certificate program and she has been extremely helpful through out the process. Tucson is a really great city, even though it is a bit smaller. The campus was really nice. From what I can determine everything is relatively in the same area on campus, including the clinic. Hope that information helps! 

May I ask when you applied/ if you were accepted into the 2yr/3yr? 

Thanks!

Yeah I love Dr. Fabiano-Smith!  I met her at ASHA in November and she's why I took a chance applying to UA instead of the other AZ schools.  I submitted my application 1/11 and got accepted on 3/1 to the 2 year program, which is when I realized I know nothing about the rest of the department or UA at all haha.  If it helps my stats are:

Last 60 credits GPA- 3.7

GRE- 155 V, 154 Q, 4.5 AW

SLPA & Bilingual research experience (Spanish & Vietnamese)

Thank you for providing that information :). I just found out I've been wait listed  But I'm hoping that changes into an acceptance! Congratulations to you!
