  1. I am interested in pursuing an MSW online as well. I live in NC, have two young children, and work full-time (already in social services). I realize I may not be able to continue to work full-time once school ramps up (especially with internships/field placements) but I'd like to work as much as I can for as long as I can. Honestly, I've been debating this whole plan for a few years now. Like someone mentioned, I hesitate to take out $34-40k more in loans (I already have that much still owed from my BS! Long, stupid story) when the pay for an MSW is not expected to be that much... and as a "lower ranked" social services employee already (case manager) I already earn close to $40k so I would not be pleased to put in a lot of grad school work and not be able to find a job that pays much more than I already make. BUT I do like the field and want to continue in it, just not stay the course I'm on, and social work is a logical path to follow. I can't figure out if it makes sense, though, really. ANYWAY, I have read and read and researched so much into most of these schools and so far I've narrowed it down to University of Louisville and Edinboro University. Still haven't made up my mind 100% on whether I'm going to go for it, though!
