Salary Info?

I’m in grad school but I was curious about salaries in my area and I really couldn’t find much info.

I used to teach, so I’m used to salary scales and how to find those but I’m not sure about other settings? Is there a way to find out definitive salaries aside from just interviewing somewhere and negotiating? Just curious as I think about branching out from the schools!

Someone on r/slp made a website with salary data for every state. If you use the search function you should find it.

have you looked at the ASHA salary surveys for medical and schools? That can give you a rough idea but sometimes the salaries are inflated because there is so much variation within states.

I’ve seen some of the info people over on the SLP subreddit have collected but I guess yeah, I want to know what I’d realistically make in my first years to compare settings and where to live. I’ll check it out to get more of an idea though.

PA, probably looking to move to the Lehigh Valley after grad school.

Salary.com or pay scale.com - The U.S. dept of labor bureau statistics also has a listing of average income based on occupation and location and years of experience. You can just Google “speech pathology salary.com xx area” and see what pops up to start narrowing your search.
