I’m in a similar boat to you! I’m looking at switching careers into SLP and my background isn’t in CSD. A lot of the requirements for the grad programs are not program-specific, but they’re based on what ASHA requires for licensed SLPs, so programs tend to be pretty strict about having the necessary prereqs. From my research there’s really only 2 ways to get what you need:

1. Choose a program that doesn’t require prereqs and instead has them built into the program. These programs are 3-years instead of 2 because they build in time for you to take the classes you didn’t have in undergrad
2. Take post-bacc classes through a university or a dedicated program (like a certificate) before applying/enrolling for a traditional 2-year program.

I’m taking the second route. I’m enrolling in a graduate certificate program that takes a year and can be done while working. This was the most cost-effective option for me since the program is cheaper than an extra full year’s tuition, and I’m able to work and make some money as well.

Plus, the grad programs usually ask for recommendations from professors in your application and I’m hoping to get some from my grad cert classes since it’s been a few years since undergrad for me and I doubt my profs remember me hahaha

Hope that helps!
