Mentoring and advising are critical aspects of the graduate student experience, and can have a significant impact on the professional lives of future postsecondary faculty and staff and a rippling effect throughout higher education and the global economy. This paper describes the process a new department undertook to create a graduate program that puts the inclusion and success of students first.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to better understand the experiences faced by students during the application process for master's degree programs in speech-language pathology. Method Data were collected through administering an online survey to 365 volunteers who had applied to master's degree programs in speech-language pathology. Survey questions were designed to gain the student perspective of the application process through exploration of students' deciding factors for top choices of graduate programs, emotional involvement in the application process, biases/rumors heard, student challenges, advice to future applicants, and what students would change about the application process. Results Factors that influenced participants' reasoning for selecting their “top choice” programs were largely consistent with previous studies. Issues that shaped the student experience applying to graduate school for speech-language pathology included financial constraints, concern regarding the prominence of metrics such as Graduate Record Examinations scores in the admissions process, a perceived lack of guidance and advising from faculty, and confusion regarding variation among graduate program requirements. Conclusion Gaining insight into the student experience with the application process for graduate programs in speech-language pathology yields useful information from a perspective not frequently explored in prior literature. While the data presented in this study suggest the process is confusing and challenging to many applicants, the discussion highlights practical solutions and sheds light on key issues that should be considered carefully by individual graduate programs as well as the field as a whole.

Introduction to the problem. The relevance of the analysis of the environment of a graduate student from the position of searching for a pedagogical means of managing his formation as a highly qualified specialist is due to the multidimensional goals and objectives of postgraduate training, which are based on the conditions of real life. The purpose of the article is to identify and justify the functional and predictive model of the environment of students in graduate school as a means of scientific and scientific-pedagogical training of highly qualified personnel. The methodology of the study. Theoretical bases of the description of a model of students in graduate school made presentation on environmental design, as part of a technology of the environmental approach in education, as well as theoretical and practical experience of understanding the way of life as a condition of personality during the educational process. An important role was played by the results of the study of the use of information and communication technologies as a system-forming factor in the training of highly qualified personnel in graduate school, conducted by the author since 2017. Results and conclusion. The environment of students in graduate school is presented as an integral tool that includes the parameters of the possibility, probability and reliability of achieving an educational goal in the environment and with the help of the environment. These parameters are revealed in the course of a sequential solution of nine tasks to describe the environment of students in graduate school, based on the rules of combining parts of the environmental approach in order to realize the educational potential inherent in it. The way of life of a graduate student is considered as a condition for becoming a highly qualified specialist with scientific and scientific-pedagogical training as a result of the interaction of the student with the environment.

Higher education products or services received by students are experiential values. The purpose of this study is how to create the values of student experience so that student satisfaction arises. Higher education should now focus on students by creating strong ties with students and alumni. This research was conducted with a survey confirmatory approach. The survey was conducted at 32 universities in South Sumatra Province, Indonesia with a total sample of 357 students. The sampling technique used was stratified random sampling and data analysis using structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis. The results showed that the values of experience in HE were formed through increased co-creation in HE, where students were directly involved in various campus activities. High co-creation shows that there is a stronger attachment of students to HE and higher value of student experience. Co-creation does not directly affect student satisfaction, but it does indirectly affect experience value. If the value of experience is higher, student satisfaction will also be higher.
