Conflicted about Uni Offers (Some advice Please)
I need to accept my uni offer by 23 May and deadlines coming up soon but I'm still conflicted. I got offered NUS English Language and Linguistics and SIT Speech and Language Therapy.
My ultimate career goal and passion is to become a speech therapist or something along that pathway so the obvious choice is SIT SLT right?
But my parents are pressuring me to accept NUS English because y'know it's NUS mah. Also my parents really want me to get a masters and not just stop at undergraduate degree. They are concerned that if I go SIT I cannot get into Masters as SLT is a very niche degree.
NUS is also an option because after English degree I can get masters in Speech Pathology in NUS as postgraduate and fulfill my career goal that way.
Right now I'm very conflicted. I'm definitely leaning towards SIT but concerns such as my parents approval and the long travelling time to SIT make me conflicted.
To my fellow seniors any advice for what I should do moving forward? Thank you if you could share some advice.
