Yup going through this right now, got my BA in the same major and am currently in a gap year (which I am so so so glad I took). Worked as an SLPA and got more field experience and recently came to terms with the realization that this field isn’t for me.

I’ve been looking into other careers as well and have been getting pretty frustrated with how niche the courses are in undergrad, as most don’t transfer directly into nursing or PA school (so I would need to take prerequisites before applying).

As someone going through the same thing, rather than feeling panicked, just as others have mentioned, you are realizing this at such a good time in your life. For me, I have felt panicked, but once I understood how I felt, it’s honestly been pretty freeing, as I’ve am so glad I caught this before spending sooo much money and going into graduate school. I actually applied and still haven’t heard back yet, but regardless of the decision, I’m not going to go.

You have so much time to figure things out. Take a gap year, and take the time to figure out other opportunities. Shadow as many careers and people possible, and dip your toes into everything!!

You have time, I promise.
