Evaluations and therapy treatments are administered by graduate student clinicians who are supervised by certified Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists.

The Audiologists work with numerous brands of hearing aids and amplification products and also participate with the Audient/EPIC hearing aid program. As a University-based Center, we are committed to providing our graduate student clinicians with a variety of disorders that will prepare them for future independence. As a result, in order to properly provide them with a meaningful education, the number of clients per semester is limited. Therefore, acceptance to our program cannot be guaranteed, however placement on a waiting list is available. If accepted into the program, clients are expected to maintain regular and punctual attendance. If frequent absence or tardiness occurs, we reserve the right to dismiss the client from the program. We look forward to continuing to serve the needs of the community.
