I have a Bachelor's degree in another field
When your Bachelor's Degree is in an area other than Speech Pathology and Audiology, you have two options for completing the Speech Pathology and Audiology program: Conditional Graduate Student or Second Bachelor
Conditional Graduate Student:
Conditional Graduate Student are students who have been admitted to the University and/or a specific program of study, conditional upon them completing certain requirements. They cannot be fully classified in their program until meeting such conditions. The Speech Pathology program requires that the student must qualify to be fully classified and must successfully compete against other applicants for classification before enrolling in more than 7 graduate units. The student should apply for admission a graduate student in Speech Pathology and Audiology and complete the equivalent of an undergraduate major, requiring approximately two years. As completion of this work nears, the student must apply again to the department for admission to the Master's program as a classified graduate student.
Second Bachelor's Degree
Students who have earned a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution with a GPA of 2.5 or higher in the last 60 semester units of baccalaureate or graduate level courses may pursue a Second Bachelor’s degree at Sacramento State. Students admitted in post baccalaureate standing (unclassified) must meet residence and other specified requirements. All Departmental and University Bachelor degree requirements apply. Second bachelor’s degrees are administered through the Admission and Records department.
