Haley’s Answer

Hi Julia!

In order to be a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) you need a Masters degree. This takes around six years.

A typical path to becoming an SLP is around four years in an undergraduate communication sciences & disorders program and an additional two years in the SLP Masters program.

I hope this helps.
