    Transitioning out of Audiology ideas

    Beyond the universities and governmental jobs, there are of course a lot of options with manufacturers and other start-ups that are trying to get into the OTC game. You can also provide consulting services or switch over the industrial/occupational side. There are really a lot of ways to get out...

    Costco/Sam's Club Pay 2022?

    It depends entirely upon which state you live in as each state has different licensure requirements. Some states require an apprenticeship-type training, some have just the written and practical exams. You'll need to check with your state's health licensing board to determine the requirements.

    New York Phd. in Hearing Sciences Applicant

    It is unlikely that you are going to find many people on this particular forum who have applied to or have been accepted to these programs. But, as a general rule, having a poor GPA, whether it is overall, in your major, or both, is a very quick way for any program to weed you out. Most review...

    Any new or fairly new audiology programs?

    Please just utilize online resources. Audiology is a small enough field that you don't have to spend hours looking to get this type of information. We have all seen you and others ask similar questions in the past 1.5-2 years.

    Wisconsin Audiology? I'm nervous I wont get in..

    I agree with violetpetals. If you get in, that's fantastic, but if you don't, it really is not the end of the world. You will get in somewhere! If you want to have a better idea about if you could get into University of Wisconsin, use the search feature in the forum to look at past posts. There...

    Piercings and Audiology?

    The issue with piercings can be tricky when it comes to practicing procedures on your fellow classmates. On one hand, it might be something they encounter in the real world, so it can provide good experience. On the other, if your piercings aren't fully healed, you could end up getting hurt (if...

    Dumb question* please read & help though

    There is no difference between CAPCSD and other application processes. It just depends on which schools you are planning to apply to and whether or not they use the CAPCSD system. Not all schools use the central application system and you may have to complete individual application requirements...

    Online Aud?

    Hi Jesse, from what I understand, the only master's program that could be used as bridge to completing an AuD would be a master's in Audiology. The point of the bridge program is to elevate your current credentials and expand your knowledge base in a field you have already been serving in. You...

    Arizona State University

    I know people currently in the program and their comprehensive exam is the Praxis, which doesn't count as an actual university comprehensive exam. Praxis is a requirement no matter where you attend school.

    Arizona State University

    Currently, no. That might be something that changes in the future though. They also do not give comprehensive exams.

    Should I retake the GRE?

    If you are looking at schools that have a higher ranking, I might consider retaking it, particularly because a lot of schools use things like GRE scores and GPA as a "weeding out" factor before they even really look at candidates they may be interested in. Also, I know that GRE scores play a...

    School Rankings

    Two big components of the ranking score include "notable" faculty members and the amount of research dollars (grant money) that the department has. Like cerumenlady said, a degree is a degree. You can pay attention to rank, but if you choose to do so, I would recommend having it be a very small...

    Anywhere to see the acceptance rates of all schools on one page?

    I haven't ever come across something like that, so EdFind will probably still be your best tool. It isn't really that inconvenient to look at each school, especially since you already know that you are wanting an "easier" school to get into, so just avoid the bigger names and look at small state...
