speech language pathology decisions?

[rubijoy]

Hi everyone,

 

I was recently accepted to several master's speech language pathology programs: University of Maryland, La Salle, and William Paterson. I am still waiting to hear back from several more, including Temple, SUNY New Paltz, and Montclair. I know UMD is a top program, but I'm wondering whether or not it's worth it to go there due to the high costs, and also due to the fact that all programs basically have the same required coarseload due to ASHA accredidation standards. Does anyone have any suggestions? If anyone attends any one of the programs I was accepted into/am waiting to hear back from, would you be willing to share some of your experiences? Thank you!

I don't know if you've seen the SL-P forum, but here is the link: http://forum.thegradcafe.com/forum/95-speech-language-pathology/. The people there would probably be better able to answer your questions!
