Going for my MSW- in NY

[Qwerty]

Can't help with NY schools, but there are also several online schools for MSW's now too. Something to keep in the back of your mind for when you are done and licensed:

They will repay up to $50,000 in student loans if you work at an approved site for 2 years.

You have some sound schools there, however, I would avoid Adephi University at all costs (except the Dernher School of Psychology)

Adelphi is over priced and over rated. They have done silly things that have diminished their local reputation - Here is one - Calling Harvard College "the Adelphi of New Enw England".

That was so silly.

I would add Stony Brook University - part of the State University of NY at Stony Brook. (SUNY) Great rep. Unquestionable academics - and highly regarded.

I have other suggestions. Adelphi makes students work as though they are at a "top notch school". You are not.

They are also not cheap.

DM me if you want for more NYC area schools of Social Work.

I have DM-ed you but haven't heard back.

Anyone else have anything to contribute? I would really love to hear from any current LCSW's..
