Actually, most places REQUIRE a Master’s degree to be an SLP because that is the standard by ASHA (The American Speech Language Hearing Association). A good place to get general info on becoming an SLP is in the Occupational Outlook Handbook (the book the govt. publishes about multiple U.S. jobs). Here is the link:
http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos099.htm
A good source for specific info, is ASHA’s website:
http://asha.org
Search around the site and you can find the average hourly and annual salaries for SLP’s across the country and various other demographic info, what qualifications different states require, information on accredited SLP programs, and much more.

You need a bachelor’s degree to be a speech pathologist, and most people tend to go on for their master’s degrees. I know a few people who are in speech pathology/audiology programs – it is rigorous, yet very rewarding. Michigan State University has a great program. You may want to check out their website for more information!
