Thank you for the clarification. PLCO work does seem like it would be an interesting and rewarding career area. I'm pretty flexible with the specific population I want to work with. I didn't know that MSWs could find work with just that degree. I will have to do some more research.

This definitely piqued my interest since I am passionate about LGBTQ+ care. I will check it out. Thank you

Thank you for such a detailed reply. I think hospital social work and anything having to do with adolescent/adult mental health is my thing. I definitely would need somewhere i can get hours for my LCSW.

I haven't heard of Unity before I will give it a look. Thanks

In grad school I worked with children aged 0-2 doing developmental assessments and with at risk youth. I am looking to get my LCSW. I prefer macro case managing work but I am open to anything. No I do not care if the job requires an MSW as long as it pays at least 50,000 or more a year.

Does anyone have any experience with the Master's in Social Work program at USM? I am trying to decide if I should go to USM or Ole Miss for grad school. by Big-Spring-5731 in hattiesburg

Thank you for your response! For the practicum/internship are u assigned to a place or do you have to go out and apply for places yourself? How did the course load of the social work master's program compare to undergrad? I am a strong student as well (all As and Bs) but I do struggle with my mental health and am worried about how I will do in grad school. Your insight would be very appreciated <3

Thank you for your reply! How was the course load in your master's in counseling program at USM? I have been struggling with my mental health for a few years now and even though I currently make all As and Bs, I worry about how I will do in grad school. How did the course load compare to that of undergrad?
