WKU Pre-SLP program?

Hi! I'm an out-of-fielder considering post-bacc programs and I was wondering if anyone had anything to say about WKU's? I've heard generally good things about the school, but I was wondering if anyone's had any other experiences? Thanks in advance

I can't speak to the quality of WKU's program, but in glancing at the cost per unit on their website, if you're not a KY resident there are likely far less expensive ways to take those prerequisites that are more flexible for time. If you're expecting to be online anyway and you're on a budget, it may be worth considering that. 

If your goal is to go to grad school at WKU, then taking your pre-reqs through them is a good way to make connections early. In my grad program, several of the people that did their prerequisites at the school were admitted (although it was by no means a certainty). Sometimes it's worth it to make those connections if you feel that will make you a more competitive candidate.
