COVID-19 Accommodations:

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, graduate program decisions regarding: 1) in-person vs remote classes, and 2) in-person therapy and tele-practice, are being made one semester at a time. This means that we have not yet determined the format of the Fall 2021 semester.

Currently, most of the graduate courses are being taught in a remote format. There are a few classes being taught as hybrid (class meetings are in-person and also remote) with all students having the option of exclusively remote sessions. We do not know if the university will continue to offer all classes with a remote option next year.

Our Speech & Hearing Clinic is open and student clinicians are seeing clients both in-person and via tele-practice. This, of course, could change quickly should the President of United States, Governor of the State of Ohio or President of BGSU determine that all in-person activities be cancelled. Off-site externships continue as usual and there is not an option of doing the two semesters of externships ‘remotely’.
