The Program in Communication Disorders
To become an undergraduate major in the Program in Communication Disorders, students must be enrolled in the College of Education and Health Professions and must declare their major as Communication Disorders. This may be done on the student's initial application form used for admission to the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
Undergraduate students who decide to pursue a major in Communication Disorders at some time during their undergraduate coursework must contact the Sylvia Hack Boyer Center for Student Services in the College of Education and Health Professions to declare or change their major.
All students declaring an undergraduate major in Communication Disorders are accepted as tentative candidates to the undergraduate program.
During the freshman and sophomore years, students are advised by the Sylvia Hack Boyer Center for Student Services. Coursework during the first four semesters is typically composed of the 35 hours of University core requirements plus electives and 11 hours of program-specific requirements for the Program in Communication Disorders.
When a student has approximately 44 hours of coursework completed at the college level, the student is directed to the Program in Communication Disorders for advising and to officially apply for admission to the Program in Communication Disorders. Students who are accepted into the program will begin to take coursework in the major starting in the fall semester of their junior year.
