YousufHaq Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) Hi All, If you guys could please share your knowledge of any new(ish) online SLP programs. Please past links below! I'm looking to apply to any newer online programs created in lets say the last 5 years. I'm going online because I work full time in education and I think it's considerably less competative. Plus I live in California where it's virtually impossible to get into any physical schools. Please post and help a fellow wannabe SLP. Thanks! PS. My background below if you're curious Currently working as a speech specialist under an emergency credential (pm me if you want to know more) 2 years experience as a education specialist in public schools k-12 2.8 GPA Postgraduate Certificate in SLP from University College London 3.1 GPA BA in Psychology 4.0 GPA in Postbacc SLP program at Portland State U. 9 credits 3.0 GPA in Graphic design 4 year career in graphic design GRE 150 verbal 145 Math hence my hesitation to apply to regular schools. i'm no brainiac.

Crimson Wife Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 What makes you think that online programs are less competitive? Since there are so few of them (and even fewer that accept CA residents), they are typically MORE competitive than many in-person programs. Northern AZ's summers-only program *IS* less competitive than most of the online programs because you need to be a SLPA or SLP on waiver in order to apply so that limits the applicant pool.

Maybe she means online programs are less competitive than CA schools since that’s where she lives (which is unfortunately true) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
