Speech-Language Pathology, MA

The MA in speech-language pathology is an entry-level degree to practice as a speech-language pathologist. The MA in speech-language pathology program offers two different modalities: the residential (on-campus) mode and the distance education mode. Students enrolled in either one or the other should register for the classes offered for their modality, either on-campus for the residential modality or online for the distance education modality. Residential modality students will not be allowed to take a class online without permission from the program director. Students who have registered for a course in the other modality will be automatically un-enrolled from the course at such time that their enrollment is discovered, which may delay completion of the course, loss of tuition, and a delay in clinical placements or even graduation. Residential modality students are expected to attend classes in person as scheduled. Students in the residential mode are expected to complete the program in two years. The distance-education mode allows students to complete the program in a two-year or three-year track. The three-year track is strongly recommended for most students due to their non-academic time commitments.
