The admissions team wants to know which considerations you put in before tendering your application to Emerson College's Communications Disorders program. The decision-makers do not want to hear that you randomly sent endless applications, hoping you would be accepted somewhere or anywhere.
Talk to the Admissions Officer about the careful consideration you put into your application. Some methods of consideration could have been:
- Attending an open house at Emerson College
- Talking to/interviewing Emerson College alumnus
- Extensive online research on the Communications Disorders program
- Meeting with a career counselor or academic advisor and asking for recommendations
- Researching renowned graduates of Emerson College's Communications Disorders program
- Speaking with a current student at Emerson College, specifically someone in the Communications Disorders program

"Before choosing which schools to apply to, I researched extensively. First, I referred to Top Masters in Health Care and U.S. News for their rankings of the best speech pathology programs in the U.S. Then, I looked at each program's completion statistics and PRAXIS examination pass rates, location, clinical placement site information, faculty research interests, and specialties classes/labs/programs the school had to offer. After doing this research, I knew that Emerson College would be the best fit for me. The CSD Research Suite will allow me to gain research experience in cutting-edge laboratory facilities. I also appreciate that during my clinical practice, this program provides the opportunity to participate in multiple clinical settings while evaluating and treating a wide variety of culturally and linguistically diverse individuals."
