SLP and AuD: Applicants to CSD Graduate Programs for summer/fall 2010 have two application options.
ALL application components must be received by February 1st. Applications submitted or completed after the February 1st deadline will be reviewed on a space available basis.
The first option is to complete an application in the traditional format by visiting the Graduate College website and following those instructions as well as the items listed below under "traditional application process through the graduate college."
The second option is through the online CSDCAS application service. Students submitting applications through CSDCAS, who are accepted to the program and commit to attending Missouri State University will be required to complete an application through the graduate college. To determine whether to use CSDCAS or the traditional process you should consider whether any other school to which you wish to apply is participating in CSDCAS. If they are, CSDCAS might be a good option for you. For instructions on the CSDCAS application process please visit the CSDCAS website at www.csdcas.org.
Education of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (EDHH): Students applying to the Master's program in EDHH will not be using the CSDCAS but will need to apply through the MSU graduate college. For more information on this please refer to the graduate college webpage.
