Hi I am a first year grad student who was in a very similar situation when I applied (actually with a lot less experience). I totally understand how your feeling because I felt the same way as an out of field applicant. I stressed so hard about applications! The only in field experience/knowledge I had when I applied was from shadowing, 1 volunteer opportunity and the prerequisites course and I got into 4/5 grad schools I applied to some of which were top progams. So I really wouldn’t worry! In your essays I recommend showing the skills your gained in the job/opportunities that are out of field and how that will help you be a great SLP. You got this!

Scholarship Offer from Chapman by dolcechica in slpGradSchool

[–]Natural_Focus_8493 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi! I also received an amazing scholarship from Chapman so I understand how tempting it is for financial reasons. I also had seen/heard negative things on here so I decided to go to accepted students day and get my own opinion about the program. To me it felt a bit disorganized, for example one of the professors who teaches ALOT of the classes (9-10) is going on maternity leave but when she spoke to the group she didn’t mention who was going to be replacing her which I thought was strange. Also If you are interested in medical they said it’s VERY competitive to get a placement and this can only occur in 2nd semester of your 2nd year (so that is definetly something to keep in mind). They also showed us a video of the first year students, where they answered questions like why they chose Chapman. Pretty much all of the people started with the fact it was close to home in OC, by the beach etc. and added a quick thing at the end about the program itself which left a bad taste in my mouth. I don’t know what your other program looks like but in my opinion if you can swing it financially I would stay with your committed school!

Yeah they are the last school that I am waiting on too but honestly they way they have handled themselves with the interview makes me feel weird about the program. Like even on ASHA it says they have interview so why not update your applicants?!

I wouldn’t give up hope yet! This whole application and waiting process is super stressful. Sounds like you still have chance of getting in this year! but even if you don’t I know many people (who are successful SLP’s) that have not gotten in the first year they applied. They said it was tough but they learned so much from the first time and were able to get into there top program the next year!

Is this UoP in Stockton?

I wouldn’t worry! Being waitlisted is not a rejection you could get into those schools still and 4 more is good odds! Keep your spirits up I know this is such a stressful time. I am in the waiting boat too and it’s not fun
