  1. Thanks for your comment. I'd be interested in hearing about how your experience at Simmons compares to mine once we start in the Fall. Since I recently accepted, I'll now be able to talk to a field advisor to ask about options. The only thing is I'll be living close to another big SW program, so hopefully it won't be too much of an issue competing with them.
  2. Thanks for your input! It has helped with my decision.
  3. Simmons doesn't offer scholarships for this program so I'm applying for FAFSA. I'll be doing the Full-time 6-term program so I'll finish up in Aug. 2017.
  4. Thanks for your thoughts! Simmons will be around $64,500 while USC is around $91,000.
  5. I am trying to decide between attending these two programs. Both are CSWE accredited online programs. I am currently leaning towards Simmons because even though it is an online program (full-time is only 1yr. 4mo.) I will still have the opportunity to have two field placements, whereas USC's online program has a virtual platform to practice field placement and then only one actual placement in the field. After graduation, my ideal job would be a high school counselor. Both have concentrations with Families and Children, but USC has a school setting sub-concentration. I am still interested in having an experience working in a hospital or adoption agency though. Any thoughts on attending a bigger name like USC versus having two field placements? Also, if anyone is currently or has attended an online MSW program I'd love to hear about your experience in general. Thanks!
