Yeah, I hope they send them out earlier too (maybe late March at least).

I see you applied to St. Mary's College. It's a great school. If you end up getting accepted there, I'd be happy to tell you more about the local area and the campus dynamic between ND, SMC, and HCC. I would have wanted to apply but it doesn't look like the SMC program is available to out-of-field applicants. It would have been nice to be one of the first male alumni of the program though!

UoP is my first choice so I hope they don't come too close to the April 15 deadline! 

I did! And thank you. That would be awesome! If I get accepted, I'll definitely PM you  

Maybe because the program is so new they only want in field applicants? I'm sure they'll accept out of fielders when they have an established program that is fully certified. It's sad that it can't help you now though but you've got some great schools on your list!

Yeah, Pacific would be awesome. I grew up in Stockton and attended an information session a few months ago. It would be great to attend a program close to home.

I have a few friends who went to SMC and others who are returning to Notre Dame for graduate school (I'm pretty jealous since I miss the area! )

Anyone got waitlisted on CSULB? 

Im curious whether they have notified all the results, or only some of the acceptances.

I want to know too.  I  saw a few people posting acceptances from CSULB, but I haven't received any words from them.

I would advice you guys to call the department. I saw other people getting acceptances when I applied for the post-bacc and when i called they let me know I was on the waitlist and where I was ranked on the waitlist. About 2 weeks later, I got my acceptance. Hopefully you guys hear from them soon!

I hope UoP sends out their decisions earlier.. I wonder why their decisions are coming later this year.

for the ppl who applied to UoP, did you apply as an in-field or out of field applicant? And do they put them all in the same pool?

I'm applying in field and from what I've heard, they pick people for the 24 month program separately from the 15 month

I am going to be applying to SLP programs for online schools. I currently live in Arizona and would love to apply to CA schools, but tuition is much too expensive.

My current GPA is decent and my original GRE scores were a bit low, but ok. Although I'm a bit nervous, I'm going to re-take the GRE and apply to more schools.

I hope I get accepted somewhere!

Hi everyone!

I see that there are a bunch of SLP forums for applicants from other states but none for California applicants, therefore I decided to start one for all of us applying to schools in CA! 

For myself personally, I am applying to CSUS, CSUEB, UoP, SJSU and CSULA. My GPA is pretty high but I am extremely concerned about my low GRE score and lack of experience in the field. I have not heard back from any of the schools yet but I am hoping to hear back from them soon! 

Feel free to comment on which schools you have applied to, your stats and any questions or concerns =). 

Where did you find SLP forums for Arizona? I only see general SLP users on this website, not those specific to each state.

I just checked the UoP graduate application checker and it says "decision made". does anyone else's status say that too? I'm freaking out ... i'm so scared that this is going to be a rejection :/

[Kslptobe]

did they already send out all of the CSULB acceptance/rejection letters?

Mine says that too! I hope this means they'll send them out soon. I don't think anyone's heard from them yet (so no news isn't necessarily bad news)

No.  I called the department yesterday and they said they'll be sending letters for the next few weeks.  So far I've been seeing people with acceptance letters on gradcafe, but no rejections or waitlists.  I haven't received an acceptance letter myself, so I'm going to assume I either got rejected or waitlisted.

Okay, thanks for replying. Hoping for the best!

My grad app checker says "decision made" too.  I'm also sitting on pins and needles waiting for UoP's decision!

@sesame_mochi @EESpeechie I hope we get in!! the suspense is killing me! Congrats to you two for your other acceptances though =)!

@sesame_mochi do you mind sharing your stats with me? I was thinking about applying to Boulder as well but I was afraid my stats weren't high enough

[EESpeechie]

I just got an email from UoP. I got accepted!! I'm so happy! Of course, I'm waiting to hear back from other schools but I'm definitely excited for the offer  

I hope everyone hears back soon with good news as well!!

Does anyone find it strange that Chapman's results page haven't shown rejection statuses since 2014 and it's by postal mail?  I mostly see accepts and waiting lists.  I have no idea what to expect from Chapman or if I'll ever hear from them.

Just received another acceptance at CSU San Marcos!! Congrats to everyone who got in:)

I heard that they email people who did interviews about 2-3 weeks later the interview week.

If you did interview longer than 3 weeks ago, I think you could email them and ask!
