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.
