The Speech-Language Pathology Program requires a scientific knowledge base for good decision making skills. Students are required to earn at least a C in all courses in the major area, in English Composition (EN 101 and EN 102 ), and in all mathematics and science courses. A course may only be repeated once to improve the grade. See “Academic Program Requirements ” for further information concerning General Education Curriculum and general degree requirements.
The undergraduate program in speech-language pathology is considered pre-professional: that is, a student must complete a master’s degree program and certain other requirements to be qualified for independent professional practice in any setting.
Progression Policy:
A cumulative grade point average of 2.75, as computed by the speech-language program, is required for progression to 300 and 400-level classes in Speech-Language Pathology. In addition, a grade of at least a C is required in each Speech-Language Pathology course. In the event a student earns a grade lower than a C in any class which is a prerequisite for another class, he/she will be unable to enroll in the higher level class. A course in speech-language pathology may be repeated only once. If a student does not earn a grade of C or better in the course when it is repeated, the student may not progress in the program. Only two speech-language pathology coures may be repeated.
