Standard Track
The Baylor University online speech-language pathology graduate program is for students who earned (or are in the process of earning) a bachelor’s degree (BA or BS) in Communication Sciences and Disorders or students who have successfully completed their leveling program.
Students must complete 45 trimester hours, pass the required comprehensive examination for the degree of Master of Science (MS), complete 400 clinical hours (this includes the 25 observation hours), and take the National Praxis examination at the end of the program.
This program takes 5 trimesters (approximately 20 months) for full-time students to complete and 7 trimesters (approximately 28 months) for part time students to complete. Both full time and part time students will complete their practicum and internship in their final 4 trimesters.
