Long Island Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) Consortium

Adelphi, Hofstra, and St. John's Universities have inaugurated a unique Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) program that optimizes the resources and facilities of the three universities. The goal of this innovative program is to train highly skilled specialists in diagnostic and rehabilitative audiology services.

The program is a 4-year full-time course of academic and clinical training, in which students complete a minimum of 89 semester hours of post-baccalaureate study. The curriculum includes course work in all aspects of audiologic practice.

Students attend classes on each campus but at least one-third of the credits needed to earn the Au.D. must be taken at the home university. Students will receive a diploma from their home institution with the notation that it was awarded in conjunction with the other two universities.

Accreditation
Effective April 2, 2008, the Council on Academic Accreditation (CAA) of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) has placed the Long Island Au.D. Consortium of Adelphi, Hofstra, and St. John's Universities on probation for a period of up to 1 year, during which time the program is required to verify compliance with accreditation standards and to report on the program's progress on the major changes and new initiatives previously reported to the CAA. During this time, the program remains accredited. The program will submit interim reports to the CAA during the year. Questions concerning accreditation may be directed to the program directors, the Au.D. program coordinator or to the CAA (301-296-5700).
