Additional information for Applicants:
- The Department requires a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication Disorders or a minimum of 30 specific prerequisite semester units in the major before beginning graduate study. However, we highly value prospective students’ grade point average in the major, and give priority to students who have submitted grades for 18 or more semester units of required prerequisite major coursework.
- Prerequisite coursework should include the following or the equivalent (descriptions of courses can be found at CSUN Catalog CD Courses):
- CD405 - Phonetics
- CD410 - Hearing Science
- CD415 - Speech and Language Development
- CD442 - Speech Science
- CD445 - Audiometry and Hearing Conservation
- CD446 - Auditory Rehabilitation
- CD450 - Fluency and Disorders of Fluency
- CD451 - Phonological and Articulation Disorders

- Letter of Recommendations are most effective when they are written by a person who knows you and your work. Select someone who taught a course in which you performed well academically, and where you made contributions to the class. Recommendations from family, friends and relatives, casual employers, and coworkers are not appropriate. We suggest that at least 2 of the 3 letters come from academic faculty.
- Applicants should not need to contact the Department Office regarding the status of an application. Once you have uploaded all of the documents and submitted your application through ApplyWeb (CollegeNet) the application is available to the Department Office for processing.
- When the review process is complete, the Department will email applicants regarding the outcome of the process. You will know at that time if you have been admitted, denied admission, or placed on a wait list. These emails are expected to be sent out around the March 2023.
