I'm pretty stunned about getting in, especially since I'm from out of field. I was just as surprised as you when I found out that I got accepted. I'm not sure if I will go yet, as I still have quite a few places to hear back from. But I've heard awesome things about the program so it is definitely one of my top choices. How about you?

Well, when I did my big pros/cons chart several weeks ago, my top choices were UMD, Iowa, and Pitt. But I still need to hear about financial assistance before I can commit anywhere. I've actually heard very little about the program. I applied mostly because I liked a professor there and I wanted to work in an aphasia lab, and Iowa was one of the few schools that had MA students in an aphasia lab (and took out of field students with only prerequisites, was in a city that I wanted to live in, etc, etc). Do you mind sharing what you've heard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mind sharing what you've heard? Sure! First, it was ranked as the #1 SLP program in the country (US News & World). I don't know how much stock to put in that, but it's interesting that it was. Second, I have heard they have good clinical placements. Third, they have an ASL program, which is important to me as I'd like to continue taking ASL classes. I've also heard the city is nice too. I'll be going to the open house so I'll get to check it out for myself. esopha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to the open house, too, so maybe we'll see each other there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tish22 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 To my people applying to the New York schools: Anyone applying to Touro? I read on this forum a couple years ago that they do not do clinical placements. You have to go out and find your own. Anyone know anything about this? Do they still do that? Also, anyone else applying in the New York area hear from any schools yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine that being true knowing schools give offers the week before classes even begin April 15 is the earliest schools can make you commit, and that involves funding offers. That resolution does not prevent schools from having later deadlines, especially if you aren't getting funded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esopha Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 It looks like Northeastern is rolling acceptances to people now? The results page is all confused, they sent that open house email to a bunch of people (I got one, too) but I've only seen a couple of acceptances and my portal hasn't changed. Northeastern isn't a top choice for me, but I know lots of people here are applying, so I thought I would post! Powersa9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMyesAnd Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hi there, I'm brand new to the gradcafe, and just realized there's this whole forum of people giving each other inside tips! Awesome! I was invited to do a skype interview with Chapman on 2/17. There were a whole lot of technical issues, the interview kept getting pushed back, and it basically never happened. I've reached out to them by email and phone to try and reschedule, but I have not heard back! I want to keep following up, but also don't want to be a pest... Anyone else have a similar experience? I've got a skype interview with Utah State on Monday, and I'm an alternate at U of Minnesota Minneapolis. Anyone hear anything from these schools? --- Temple U., Salus U., U. of Delaware (are they even accredited yet?), Pitt, Loyola U of Maryland, Minn. State Mankato, U of Colordao Boulder, San Diego State, Old Dominion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esheshesh Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hi @CMyesAnd. Welcome to the forum! I thought this place was amazing for guidance when I found, so I'm happy it can be of help to you too. Sorry to hear about that experience with Chapman. I think it's definitely worth contacting them to try and reschedule since if they gave you an interview it's only fair. As far as the other schools, I would check the grad cafe survey to see if anyone has posted results for the schools within the past month or so. I have a friend applying to Temple and she hasn't heard back. Most come in by around March. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingiestrong Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Already posted something about this on the interview thread, but has anyone heard from GVSU about interviews yet? Their website says that invitations will be sent out mid-february, so I was wondering if anyone has heard back yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only got an email about submitting 2 additional documents by the end of this week. My guess is we'll hear back probably sometime next week.
