For anyone currently applying or past applicants for the SLP programs did you use any resources to help you look over writing statement of purpose for your grad programs. I don't mean like an AI tool but more like an in person tool like a resource in your school or anyone online that can look over them. I was planning to ask other friends who are also applying/ friends in general but I'm not sure how to go about it especially since I want my statements to stand out and try to get them to stay on topic.

I’ve been accepted into both Bachelor of speech and Master of speech and I don’t know which to choose!

The Masters seems more logical since I’ve already done a bachelors in Medical Science and I’ll be working full time in 2 years instead of 4, but I’m worried that the workload will be way too intense for me!

I’m grateful to still be living at home so I do have a lot of support from them, can work part time, I’m not a parent etc… but is the Masters not going to prepare me as well for working as the slower paced Bachelors?

Any advice appreciated!!

I keep getting mixed messages from current SLPs. Some tell me I NEED to do an extra internship at a children’s hospital to have a chance at getting a CF or job at a children’s hospital or working with peds/infants. But others tell me that as long as I do a good amount of observations and know my stuff, I’ll be fine. Anyone have any insight? I’m afraid doing a 3rd internship will cause major burnout and I also have a possibility of moving so it would be a challenge to get a 3rd one in a diff. state and still work with my university over the summer. (hopefully that makes sense)

Hello everyone! I graduated with a bachelor’s of Music in Voice in 2025 and I want to pivot to the field of SLP because I want to help people directly. I graduated with a 3.9 GPA. I’m also in Texas. I’m really interested in becoming a Voice specialized SLP.

Because I am an out of field applicant, do you recommend shadowing and SLP before applying to grad school? How does one go about doing this, especially since I’m not a CSD student currently?

Does anyone recommend becoming an SLPA prior to applying to grad school?

What are the chances I even get into grad school without a bachelors in CSD?

Is the field of Voice SLP niche? Does it matter what school I attend?

Sorry I ask a lot of questions!
I appreciate your time!!

Hello

i just submitted my applications for the fall of 27 and my application is already verfied. Im nervous becuase a school reached out to me asking for my offical transcript for my in-progress classes,even though i had sent my transcript to CSDCAS. My letter of recs also havent been sent in yet. so im a little nervous i submitted everything to early but i was granted a fee waiver and had to turn everything with the 15 days of reacieving the waiver. this is also my frist time applying to speech grad schools so the process if very confusing. I applied to 9 schools in total and am super excited for this new chapter, any thought's on the process would be supper helpful!!! thanks
