To practice, you’ll often need a master’s degree in the field and a state license, but the exact requirements vary.

For example, slp requirements in Michigan include completing an accredited graduate program and passing the national Praxis exam. If you’re interested in another region, see this guide on how to become a speech language pathologist in Minnesota, which outlines state-specific credentials and supervised clinical experience expectations.

In the South, pathways differ; for example, if you’re becoming a speech therapist in Mississippi, you’ll need to meet state educational and certification standards. Similarly, those interested in working in the Midwest can view the Missouri slp certification requirements for detailed steps.

Whether you’re pursuing a broader psychology degree or a targeted path like speech-language pathology, understanding your state’s requirements is crucial for planning your career in this rewarding field.
