  1. I have seen countless threads on the discussion of Columbia vs NYU for MSW and, while I am aware that the name of the school in this profession does not matter, I am still finding it very difficult to choose between the two schools based on my wants and needs as student pursuing social work. I hope to work in a school setting as a school clinician while also wanting to work in a private practice / counseling firm as a clinical social worker (once I get my LCSW of course). I have very little interest in macro work, though I understand it is very important to know and reference outside resources that can positively impact an individual. I am about to graduate undergrad as a counseling and human services major which is where my passion for individual counseling and therapy comes from. I have also applied to programs for clinical mental health counseling, however, to my understanding (or at least this is what I have been finding on subreddits and forums such as this one) that social work or LCSWs are more in demand and have more freedoms and abilities than clinical counselors (again, if I am wrong please please please correct me as it could save me from committing to the wrong type of program). When looking at the curriculum guides, the differences on paper between the two programs seems negligible, so I would really appreciate some feedback from former or current students in each program. Thank you!
