Admissions

Beginning for students enrolling Fall 2026, Baylor University's Master of Science in Communication Sciences and Disorders is transitioning to a Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology to better align with the professional goals and outcomes of our graduates. This transition relates only to the name of the program and will not impact any programmatic or curricular components. During the transition process, you may see both names used interchangeably in different communications. Please note that the two names are referring to the same program. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Robbins_Grad@baylor.edu.

In order to apply to Baylor's online speech-language pathology graduate program, you must hold a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited college or university. A minimum Undergraduate GPA of 3.2 (based on 4.0 scale) is required. However, a GPA of 3.4 or higher is strongly recommended. Undergraduate courses in Biology, Physics OR Chemistry, Social Science, and Statistics should be completed prior to beginning the program.
