USU or ENMU for 2nd bachelors?

[Nani19]

Hi Everyone!

I am in the process for applying for SLP grad schools without any luck. I was looking into going for my 2nd bachelors in CSD to raise my GPA and get some experince as a SLPA. I'm hoping that once I complete the 2nd bachelors I can apply to a SLPA program at Loma Linda or Northridge. Has anyone gone through Utah State or Eastern New mexico for their 2nd bachelors? What are your experiences? I hear of many students attend USU but havent really heard much about ENMU.

I am finishing up the second bachelor’s program at ENMU and honestly I love it! You have the option to take some of the classes in an 8 week or 16 week format. My advisor was great and very honest about which courses would be more manageable in either 8 or 16 weeks. In took me about a year and a half because I took a semester off. The only thing about getting a second bachelors is that if you have plans on trying to become a SLPA you’ll still have to enroll in a clinical fieldwork program afterwards to obtain the clinical hours which will run you a lot $4,000- $5,000. My suggestion would be to enroll into one of the SLPA programs at a community college, which is about 2 years long, if you really wanna become a SLPA first however, if your ultimate goal is to become an SLP and you feel as if you can skip over becoming a SLPA then the second bachelor’s degree is a better option for that.
