<p>I'm currently majoring in Linguistics and Spanish, and while I've always wanted to focus on interpretation and translation, I'm looking to keep my options open for future career paths, specifically with teaching.
I would like to get into speech language pathology, which is distantly related to linguistics, and I'm looking into an M.A. program in Communicative Disorders.
The speech communication department at the prospective university lists as its requirements to the grad school program either 1) a B.A. in CD or 2) if you graduated with a different major, then a list of related courses to the major to have taken before acceptance to the program.
The issue at hand are the required courses. There's 12 courses that are required for the program. None of the prep courses are offered at the local CC, nor am I a student at the university. There's only 1 required course that I will have finished by the time of graduation that counts toward similar requirements.
Has anyone else been in a similar situation? Or ... even pursued an MA in a completely unrelated field from undergrad that had necessary course requirements?</p>
