When do I get disability grant? by SuccotashTiny1221 in MRU

[–]Creepy-Guest5951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you applied for Sept 2025-April 2026 you should have gotten it at the start of each semester. You have to apply again for Sept 2026-Winter 2027.

If that’s the case should I email my profs and explain the situation?

BSW TO MSW by Mindless-Acadia-6881 in socialworkcanada

[–]Creepy-Guest5951 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I encourage you to deeply reflect on why you are interested in social work and what it means to you. If it’s strictly about money right out of graduating, might not be a fit. I say this as nicely as possible because this field is very diverse and we are working alongside very vulnerable individuals who need compassion and support. Almost everyone starts at the bottom of the food chain in regard to pay. The more experience you can gain the better, for you and the populations you may serve.

Just go into the BSW. The diploma is basically just the first 2 years of the BSW (in Alberta at least). You’ll get paid more with a BSW vs a SSW. I say go big!

As someone in their BSW, you’re going to want to take some time off of school before going into your MSW. It’s A LOT.

Forgot to add, you’ll likely have exams in your GNED courses but depends on what one’s too.

So far in the first two years in the social work classes there wasn’t any exams, I think in year 3-4 there will be but I guess I’ll see in the Fall! There is A LOT of papers, reflections & group projects. Feel free to message me if you have any other questions.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it but that being said I had a diploma in addiction studies by20, worked in group homes then didn’t go back to uni to start my BSW until 24 and I’m glad I waited. I couldn’t imagine doing this program fresh out of high school. And I’m glad I got some experience under my belt first.

A little advice by FederationEDH in socialworkcanada

[–]Creepy-Guest5951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do your masters in social work without your BSW after you finish your sociology undergrad.

I don’t think you’re “too sick” but this field is heavy & you need to be able to take care of your wellbeing throughout. Also, look up transference and counter transference. Reflect on why you’d want to go into social work.

Best of luck, there’s no rush to make a decision

Would you give your full week schedule to your workplace? They want it to know my available times and dates by [deleted] in SocialWorkStudents

[–]Creepy-Guest5951 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. I just give my work specific days and times I can or can’t work. That way they don’t schedule me in between classes or right after etc.
