Ph.D after MA?

[smartypants14]

Are any of you planning on getting a Ph.D after finishing grad school?

Not immediately after. I want to work in clinic and pay off my loans before acquiring more debt, but it's a likely possibility. I'd like to teach at a college level, as well as conduct research.

I am considering it and I am in my first year now. Ideally, I'd love to work to pay off the MS loans for a few years while living on a ramen noodle budget! and then start the grad school hunt. I'm also looking into going into the AuD/PhD combo program after I graduate, which is a typical doctoral position and university supported rather than living on loans. We shall see where the next year and a half take me. I also have not completely settled what area I would concentrate in, so until that is decided, I am going to hold steady on the MS-SLP course for now.
