Name: Katrina Sanchez School: Florida State University Program: Speech-Language Pathology Year: First What do you enjoy most about FSU's program? I joined the TIES (Traineeship in Interdisciplinary Early Intervention in Severe Disabilities) grant at FSU which focuses on working with families from different cultural backgrounds and doing research/ intervention with them. It really stood out to me and when I was accepted to the program and the grant it was a deal breaker. What clinical experiences does FSU have to offer? All students get clinical experience in our FSU clinic which is conveniently located just downstairs, so right after class if you have a client you just run down and set up. In the clinic we get experience working with both kids and adults in basically every aspect you can think of. Our second year we go out into the community for experience in outpatient rehab clinics, schools, etc. (kids and adults). How prepared did you feel going into grad school? I felt pretty prepared going into the program coming from UF. At first I felt a little intimidated thinking I wouldn't know as much as I should, but we have a big shot program at UF and I ended up knowing more than I thought I would, especially in Audiology (most other students have very little knowledge of audiology stuff). The only thing I would say is that FSU professors know what FSU undergrads have learned so sometimes at the start of the year I felt like I was out of the loop on a few things they'd talk about but you really do catch on quickly so don't worry about that. How do you feel your grades, GRE scores, letters of recommendation, resume, etc. affected you during the application process? Personally my GRE scores were not that great at all, I'm a poor test taker, always have been, so I worked really hard in UF to stand out in areas where I had a lot of interest and knew I could do really well in (volunteering, research, NSSLHA, grades, etc). Sooo I know I didn't get in for my GRE but that just shows that they do look at other areas to make a fair decision. They really look at letters of rec too so get to know your professors and show them how much you care and have an interest/passion for this and you'll do great! Any tips for the application process? For the application process just basically try to stay as organized as you can and request a letter of rec really far in advanced. Professors at UF have a list that they make, and when that list is full they won't accept any other requests for a letter so ask early. Remember to ask professors that really know you, if they don't know you that well it probably won't make for a strong letter. If you can go interview at the school I would suggest that, and do your research on the program online beforehand. I kept looking for professors in each program that I had common interests with and emailed them asking questions and what they think I could do to be a stronger applicant. I figure it's one way to try and get your foot in the door in their program and perhaps they'll put in a good word for you if they would like you in their program/want you to do research with them. What do you wear to class and clinic? We dress professional on days that we have clients (2-3 days a week) which is basically like dress pants closed toe flats and a cute top that won't be revealing if you bend down when working with kids. We do wear scrubs if we have clinic in the hospital/outpatient centers (this semester I wear scrubs in the pediatric outpatient clinic, yay!). What's life like in Tallahassee? Tally takes getting used to, it's definitely not Gainesville, but it's a cool place with lots of outdoors activities and bars and stuff. We try to go out with the girls for drinks to keep our sanity on the weekends but there's a whole lot of undergrad life here so it depends what you're into doing. We do have time to have lives though and some girls even work so if that's something you need to do know that it is possible, even though the professors say you won't have time, you will have time so don't worry. Any last tips or comments? Good luck ladies!!!!! Email me or message me with any questions! Thanks, Katrina!
