Tuck Posted July 24, 2021 Posted July 24, 2021 Hi all! I am 6 years out from my Master's program (CCC-SLP) and am finally thinking about applying to PhD programs, which is what I originally planned to do years ago when I first started my MS. I found that I enjoyed clinical work + the salary and stability that comes with it, but I remain very interested in a research career. What keeps scaring me off is the massive pay cut I would have to take to pursue a PhD and uncertainty about the academic job market after the PhD. Can anyone tell me what your monthly stipend and expenses are like as a PhD student? If you have your CCC, do you have any time/opportunity to do PRN on the side to make extra income? I am particularly interested in the University of Washington, and I realize Seattle is a high cost of living area. Thank you in advance!
