Personal Statement

During my undergraduate years at Old Dominion University, I have excelled academically and gained experience in the areas of research, clinical writing, conducting assessments, and diagnosing speech disorders. I believe I have what it takes to be a valuable asset in the clinical setting. I have experience following safety procedures and working in a laboratory setting. My undergraduate courses also provided me with information literacy; therefore, my ability to conduct relevant research is highly developed. I also have a highly developed understanding of the anatomy and physiology of speech and swallowing. Overall, I know I have the skills necessary to succeed as a Speech Language Pathologist.
