Hi all! I am currently a speech/language pathologist in the process of applying to MSW programs. I have a bachelors and masters degree in communication sciences & disorders and three years of experience as an SLP in the public school setting. In my career I've had the opportunity to work with children and families from low SES backgrounds and wear many "hats" while serving as an SLP. I'm a little worried about my competitiveness as an applicant as I don't have an undergrad background in social work or a traditional liberal arts program. I completed both of my degrees with a 3.5 GPA. I know that no one can give an exact answer, but am I competitive applicant for an MSW? I am trying to avoid programs that require the GRE as my 2010 scores can no longer be reported. I believe that I will be able to obtain strong recommendations from former instructors and current supervisors. I am interested in gaining admission to Columbia, NYU, University of Michigan, UPENN and USC.
Thanks in advance for the help! I really appreciate it!
