bswstudent128 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I am trying to decide which schools to apply to in Boston and Mass in general. I am looking into Simmons, Smith and Boston college. I am currently a BSW student so I will be applying for advanced standing. Does anyone know about these programs or others in Mass and the advanced standing process?

michigan girl Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) It is difficult to answer this question without knowing more about your academic interests. Are you clinical or macro?

Miss Mags Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 (edited) Hello, I attend Bridgewater's MSW program and they do offer advance standing. The program has a clinical focus is pretty intensive. There are a lot of opportunities here that I was not aware of prior to applying. I love that the class sizes are small and every professor I have had so far has been wonderful. It's a smaller program than some of the other area schools and is fairly competitive since the cohort sizes are small. I love it here Edited December 7, 2013 by Miss Mags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lola9900 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Why not Boston University? I only ask because that is where I am applying -- though I will not have advanced standing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boston Bound Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Why not Boston University? I only ask because that is where I am applying -- though I will not have advanced standing. Hey I applied to bu, but in bu you can't do advanced standing until you have finished field work/can hand in a complete field evaluation. Many fieldwork places go from sept to may, so you can't hand in a completed evaluation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced standing is only for BSWs and allows them to complete an MSW program in one year full-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
