rhey Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 I've made my decision and I'm SO excited!! I'll be attending this fall full time, while also getting my School Social Work cert. Is anyone else on here attending in the fall? Or thinking about it?
na2ural Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Hi Rhey, Glad you posted! I just got accepted to Simmons and will be entering in the fall as well, part time. I'm also so excited . . . and so glad to be finished with the application process. See you in a stats class or at orientation!

na2ural Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Simmons stood out as having such a warm and personable environment. I am also interested in clinical social work so I appreciate the higher number of field placement hours and the faculty-practitioners. Have you visited?
rhey Posted March 16, 2014 Author Posted March 16, 2014 A girl I grew up with is a current student, and she absolutely loves it. It's great for clinical practice, because you have much more time in the field, starting from day one. I visited as well, and my general impression was that the classes are small, the professors are approachable, and it has a great reputation in the metro Boston area. I also received a hand written note from a recent grad, telling me why she loved her Simmons experience. Given that MSW programs are two years, I want to have the most experience possible before I start working. Also the location is perfect, close to so many other Boston universities.
Amante3 Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 I was accepted to Simmons, but not looking to take out a lot of loans
rhey Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 I agree. BC just gave me a better scholarship offer, so now I'll be going there.
