ACU Dallas

Hi :) You may have already made a decision about graduate school, but I can shed some light on the ACU Dallas program if you are still wondering. I'll be graduating in May from the program, so just let me know! 

A few quick details: 

The program is in Addison, TX and classes meet in person -- We do not have a university clinic, instead you'll start with a "language lab" experience and then the first off-site placement will be at a school district... I've enjoyed this aspect of the Dallas program because we do get the opportunity to begin clinical experiences from the get-go out in the community rather than in clinic. I've really enjoyed my experience, I was in the first cohort to start the Dallas program, so seeing it grow has been really awesome! Dr. Bender is the best!!! 

Sorry if you chose somewhere else for grad school and now this info is totally irrelevant... lol but just in case! If you need more details just let me know!

Thanks for the info Kenzie! This is the only program I've been accepted to so far, so I will definitely be accepting the offer!

I actually do have some questions if you don't mind :)

Is the program ASHA accredited? I spoke to ACU and also looked at ASHA EdFind and seemed to get conflicting answers.

Are all of your classes during the day? Do most students in the program have a job?

Is there somewhere most of the students live or is everyone pretty much on their own?

How do you like the satellite campus and the program in general?
