Dear Graduate School Applicant:

Thank you for your interest in our graduate program. This letter summarizes the application process. Please see our application link on our website at https://www.uwsp.edu/CommD/ for specific information. You may also request a paper application packet by emailing Mrs. Chris Zinda at czinda@uwsp.edu .

Each application is reviewed by members of our School of Communicative Disorders (SCD) if it meets our application requirements.  The due date for all application materials is Thursday, January 11, 2012. I encourage you to send your application to the SCD via delivery confirmation mail or certified mail. If your application to the School of Communicative Disorders arrives before the deadline, we will contact you if any materials are missing. We will not contact you if we do not have an application to our department. Please do not call or email to check the status of your application in January. We process 120-150 applications each cycle and it is not possible to respond to status check inquires during this time.

If you are an international student, please let us know immediately and special instructions will be sent to you. An international student must submit an application to the International Students and Scholars Office.

If you wish to be considered for a SCD graduate assistantship, please submit the assistantship application with your other application materials.

Because the application is your responsibility, please begin the process as soon as you can.  It may be helpful to inform those who are writing letters of recommendation for you of the January 11, 2012 deadline. Please refer to the check list of required application materials and use it to monitor the submission of your application materials. 

Current tuition and fee information can be obtained at http://www.uwsp.edu/admissions/fees2.aspx . If you have questions about loans or other sources of aid, visit the Financial Aid Office at http://www.uwsp.edu/finance/ or contact them at 715-346-4771.

Again, thank you for your interest in our program.  You are welcome to visit our facility, meet with me and other SCD faculty and staff, or visit with current students.  If you have questions concerning the application process or the program, please do not hesitate to call me at 715-346-4657 or e-mail me at Julia.King@uwsp.edu .

Sincerely,
