BunnyMeadows Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Anyone know anything about this program? I can't find much information apart from a #44 ranking...
WhatAmIDoingNow Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Yes, what would you like to know? Some facts off the top of my head: It is the only MSW program in AZ and they participate in WGRP (http://wiche.edu/wrgp). The Phoenix location is the main program and the Tucson is a smaller, distance location. Rep Kyrsten Sinema is an instructor and does internships in DC. They have an MSW/MPA, and MSW/JD concurrent degrees. Phoenix is a cheap place to live with a lot to do, but you have to handle the heat.
BunnyMeadows Posted February 25, 2015 Author Posted February 25, 2015 WhatAmIDoingNow thanks for the input. I would like to be in TUS, because I prefer a smaller, politically liberal place. Love the fact that Rep Sinema is involved.

Love the fact that Rep Sinema is involved. Arizona is not liberal, but has liberal leaning pockets such as Phoenix and Tucson. Tucson is a smaller program and is slightly more competitive to get into because of the number of southern Arizonans that apply for the location. As far as rankings, I do not know what goes into the ranking calculations. I do not recommend the PhD program, but the MSW program seems to be good from my experience with some of the students. They seem to have a lot of internship opportunities that other MSW programs do not have. At the very least, it seems like a good safety school. Edited February 25, 2015 by WhatAmIDoingNow
