Is the graduate program responsible for assuring that the students take the Praxis exam prior to graduation?
No, it is the student’s responsibility to be sure that they have completed the examination at the appropriate time. The Praxis examination is designed to be taken once graduate academic course work and clinical practicum have been completed, but in many situations students take the exam as they are beginning their final year in the graduate program. When the exam is taken, the applicant must list ASHA as a score recipient so that the results will be sent to the National Office. Additionally, it is helpful if the applicant lists his or her graduate program as a score recipient so that the program can report aggregate performance data periodically to the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA) for the program’s accreditation purposes.
