doodlegrl Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Hi all! I'm new to this forum and hadn't seen this for Fall 2021. I am currently waitlisted at the only schools I applied to. (For background, I am an out of field applicant only applying to 3 year programs). Ii thought I'd create this space for solidarity or updates. Also, if you're a current graduate student, how was your experience with the waitlist? Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLPGreen Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Hi there! I am in a similar boat...so far waitlisted for two schools, waiting to hear back from the last one. Thinking positive thoughts for us all! ?? ABC1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_slp_2021 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Hello! I've gotten into a couple of programs, but am waitlisted at Portland State and waiting to hear back from UT Austin. I like all of the programs I applied to, but would choose Portland State or UTA over the other two I've been admitted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ck907 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I am waitlisted at Idaho State University. They told me they received 650 applications this year and am doubtful that I will get an acceptance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLPGreen Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Now waitlisted for my 3rd and last application. I keep telling myself 3 out of 3 waitlists is better than 3 out of 3 rejections! ? meadymalarkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayestr Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I’m waitlisted for my top choice MUSC. Does anyone know around what time we should see waitlist movement? I figured probably not until closer to acceptance deadlines but wasn’t sure. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylo225 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I applied to eight schools, and so far haven't been accepted. As discouraging as it can be, I'm just trying to keep in mind that our field is suffering from a bottleneck. We need more clinicians, and we have a lot of soon-to-be clinicians applying, but cohorts are so small compared to the number of applicants. So, if we don't get in until our second or third application cycles, that's okay!! My undergrad professors have always reiterated that we will all get into grad school at some point, we just have to be patient. Best of luck, y'all! Rejected. Waitlist. Accepted. University of Colorado - Boulder. University of Texas - Austin. University of Washington. Western Washington University. Northwestern. University of Vermont. Portland State University.

Mayestr Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Would anyone be interested in making a GroupMe to vent about waitlist stress or stress from this application cycle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dani_zee Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I have been waitlisted at UMass Amherst, Towson University, Penn State, and Temple. They all had more applicants than usual so I think for some of them I was waitlisted because of that. I really doubt I will get accepted to any of them, but that's okay because I have enough acceptances to choose from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also an out-of-field applicant and am on the waitlist for a school. I am desperate to get into due to my situation. I am trying to stay positive but hopeful that I will have the chance of getting into UVM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marybeth Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I was accepted, but I wonder why schools are getting so many applicants this year? Does anyone know? I will be at UNM in the fall, and I was told this is their largest cohort ever. (Which I didn't like to hear.) Why are there more applicants this year?

livwessel9 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I applied to the University of Cincinnati online SLP program and have been waitlisted (unranked). They said we should find out by August 15th if we have been moved off of the waitlist or not. Is there something I should be doing in the meantime? Letter of continued interest? Has anyone else applied to this before or give me any advice? Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
