Can one be admitted to the M.A. program without an undergraduate degree in communication sciences and disorders?
Quite a few students who do not have a background in communication sciences and disorders are admitted to the master’s program each year. Approximately 25% of the students who begin the M.A. program each fall come in with backgrounds such as education, psychology, linguistics, English, a foreign language, etc. For students entering the M.A. program without a background in communications sciences and disorders, there are a number of prerequisite courses that must be taken before progressing into the advanced course offerings for the M.A. degree. This generally lengthens the student’s time spent in the M.A. program by approximately one academic year.
