I've been an SLP for many years, but a friend of mine is planning to enter the world of SLP after many years in corporate America. She's been accepted into a program, but had to defer due to complexities with financial aid and their offerings. Are there any unique ways that people have funded their grad programs outside of traditional financial aid?
Loans, Grants, Scholarships that I may not know about?
She is in her 40s, a minority, a parent, lots of adjacent experiences/certifications that will greatly complement a masters in speech pathology.
She would be a TREMENDOUS asset to your field. Wanna help her find funding to make it happen! Would be so grateful for ideas.
