I’m a speech pathologist…I would suggest you get your bachelors degree AND try to take the prerequisite courses you will need to pursue a masters program in Speech Pathology. That is the degree you need anyway…an undergrad degree in speech pathology will give you some idea of the coursework and such, and some experience…but you will be REQUIRED to get a masters degree to be licensed to practice speech pathology in most places.

I would suggest that you look on the American Speech Language Hearing Association website. It has a wealth of information for students. Read it.

If your current school has a speech path program, make an appointment and talk to them to find out what you need to do to get admitted to a grad program in speech pathology. NOT ALL grad school speech path majors got their undergrad in speech path.
