Dual Au.D. / Ph.D. Program in Audiology

Syracuse University

All candidates for the dual degree must first be admitted to and complete minimally the first full year of the AuD program. Each student in the AuD/PhD program must have a faculty research sponsor, and this sponsorship must be agreed upon prior to application and admission to the dual program. To apply to the dual program, the candidate must take the GRE if scores (within the last 5 years) were not already submitted when admitted for admission to the AuD program. Typically, formal application should be made by the January 1 deadline for PhD admissions in the second or subsequent years of the AuD program. AuD students applying to the dual degree must submit applications through the Syracuse University online graduate application system. Candidates for admission to the dual degree program should possess a bachelor's degree with a GPA of 3.5 or higher on a 4.0 scale in the last 60 semester credits of their undergraduate degree. A minimum GPA of 3.5 in the candidate's graduate coursework is also required. In addition, the candidate should have obtained a minimum percentile score of 40% in the Verbal section (raw score ≥ 149), 50% in the Quantitative section (raw score ≥ 153), and a 4.0 in the Writing section on the Graduate Record Examination taken within the last 5 years.
