Approximately 40 new graduate students are accepted into the program each year. We typically accept graduate students for the Fall semester. Students who have junior standing can transfer into the Communicative Disorders and Sciences program and begin taking courses. Students are encouraged to register for courses early to ensure that they will be admitted to the course. We recommend entering the program in the Fall semester in order to complete the program in 2 years.
Class size varies depending on the course.
On average, classes do not exceed 40 students and most range from 25 to 36 as maximums. There is no specific training for bilingual speech pathologists, however, we do offer courses on bilingual assessment and cross-cultural awareness. Occasionally, special courses are offered to focus bilingual skills. In the past there were also grants available to support bilingual students, but there are none currently available. No, you must simply complete the application to the university.
