Hello. Can someone please help me decide what school I should choose for my MSW program. I was for sure I wanted UCLA because I fell In love with the program, however USC may be a more diverse school and a better location. Can you please give ideas why one school may be better than the other? Thank you in advance for your help.

What do you mean by diverse school and better location (at USC)? What are you looking for in a program? Does USC offer something that UCLA cannot? Both are very good schools. Is cost of relevance to you?

Hello MissUmmra,

I think both schools offer great programs.The diversity is there in both schools. I think you should write down pros and cons for each program and go with what interest you the most.UCLA may not seem diverse but it is. Also consider how difficult it is to get into UCLA MSW program versus USC. I got into both programs and I'm sticking with UCLA.the network is there and it cost is less. Good luck with your decision!

Hello lovinMSW! Congratulations on getting in both! Thank you very much for your help. Yes I'm sticking to UCLA as well. That was my first choice so I'm going with my first instinct. Plus it is a very good point about the difficulty level of getting in as well as the great difference in tuition cost. Did you join the Facebook UCLA MSW 2017 group? The best of luck to you.

Hello Saidypoo, thank you for responding to my question. I've figured it out :)

Hey lovinMSW. Yes I've joined. It's a really small group, maybe 6 of us. Just another way to stay connected :) so it's up to you. If you've managed to stay away from social media then I'd say great job with that. It's helpful to know there's support though and we can ask and answer questions quickly.
