If you plan to apply to grad school, take advantage of all the tools available to you to achieve a strong overall GPA. You might consider volunteer opportunities with either a speech pathologist, special education program, literacy program, or senior center. The department also emails out volunteer opportunities associated with the graduate program's Rees Speech, Language, and Hearing Clinic on the Hayward campus to all declared majors. And, we encourage you to consider joining
NSSLHA, an active department organization of students pursuing speech pathology as their major. You are welcome to read up on the national
NSSLHA organization.
