Which SLP program should I choose?

[kay0928]

Hello!

 

I got accepted into McGill, UofT and Western. I seriously don't want to decline any single one of them, but I can only pick one

 

Please help!

 

Let me know which one would you choose and why please

 

Thank you!!!

Hi!

I don't know about those schools specifically but I just made the difficult school choice for SLP too! For me both of the schools were equally ranked and of equal quality in matching my interests. So, even though one was close to home I decided to choose based off of the financial commitment. I made the standard pro/con list for each school but it wasn't getting me anywhere. Someone suggested thinking about life beyond grad school and the extra $30-40K the home school would cost would mean a lower quality of life until those loans were paid off so that made the decision for me once funding offers were made.

From what I looked up, U of T is #10 in the country, that's pretty incredible. But if you love all the programs equally, perhaps consider the cost and opportunities/possible connections fir your future career. Good luck!

Thank you for your reply!

 

You are completely right. I made a pro.con list too, and it's not helping me. My biggest dilemma is whether I should continue my studies at McGill and avoid further debts, or I should go for a new university and fresh perspectives. I wanted the second the more, but now I'm reconsidering again.

 

Still on the fence...

 

P. S. Where did you get the information that U of T is ranked 10th in Canada? I couldn't find any ranking for Canadian SLP programs!
