Question about Social Work Licensing
bethyann1418 replied to Leilani020's topic in Social Workers Forum
In WV they only require on letter IF you take the exam before graduation or want to get a temp license. The letter had to be from the school saying that I was in good standing when I applied for my temp. My advisor wrote mine. I would assume that if the board doesn't specify then you probably could get away with intern supervisors and professors or a boss of a job you have. -
msw rural concentration. Will it be a problem?

I posted this originally in the wrong forum topic because I was so anxious about it but here it is: I am currently looking to apply to grad school. The only grad school I can seem to go to due to living in the middle of nowhere is an online program. It is accredited by the NASW and a very good school over all. The only problem is they have a focus on rural social work. All the classes, even the electives are rural based. My only issue is that I want to work in an urban setting as a therapist. and not knowing any other social workers I don't know what to do. 1) will going through this program ruin my chances of ever being able to move somewhere that isn't rural? 2) will I only be able to do rural social work? 3)How much weight does a concentration have on the jobs someone can get after they receive their degree? I would appreciate any and all answers I can get. Thank you -
