General requirements

A Bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited university. While a degree in CSD is not necessary, undergraduate course work must include a biology course (or closely related, as determined by the director), a physics or chemistry course, as well as a mathematics (or a statistics) course.
Students must have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.00 (4.00 scale) on all coursework attempted, including transfer work.
Students must submit three letters of recommendation. At least two of the three must speak to the student's academic potential for graduate school (i.e., current/former instructors/professors).
Students are encouraged to job shadow. Ideally, a student with a CSD background would obtain about 25 hours of shadowing and students from non-CSD background are encouraged to earn about 40 hours. Hours can be documented by a letter from an audiologist that was shadowed.
