On-Campus SLP Degree & Admission Details

You may indicate either a summer or fall starting semester in the ApplyTexas application. Within the CSDCAS application, there is an option for you to select your preferred starting semester. As students are accepted, we allow them to select their starting semester unless there are no longer spots available for that cohort. At the time of acceptance, we can change the starting semester in the system if needed.

TWU follows ASHA’s guideline for meeting this standard. For more information on classes that count toward this requirement, see ASHA’s Course Content Guide.
  
  • Statistics (can be math statistics, psychology statistics, business statistics, etc.)
  • Biological science (biology, human anatomy, microbiology, etc.)
