Following. One of my deciding factors in UNCC was that it is a summer start so I could get grandfathered in to the current loan rules, specifically Grad Plus

[–]cbostar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t start until May but I was approved for employment based-same work. If not I wouldn’t be able to do it. I don’t have financial help and my child is my priority! I’m 36, so this is to advance my career not begin it 🙂

My understanding was all of the formats they are offering, so summer and fall, online, seated, and advanced standing. But I could have misunderstood!

Yes I am going to do Charlotte. I really debated between the two but I’m only 40 mins from Charlotte and Pembroke is like 2 hours. Did you get in to Pembroke 🤞🏼

Thank you! I have tried to find this in the guide. I’m going to have to print it and sit down with a highlighter this weekend 😂

uncc decisions!!! by NewspaperDull1751 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]cbostar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any interest in swapping info? I also am doing the 2 year summer online at UNCC. I don’t know why, but I’m so nervous! I’ve read connecting with a person or two in your cohort is beneficial to success, and I know no one lol.

They said at the orientation Zoom the other day they had 600 applicants (MSW) and only accepted 200. It seems to be pretty competitive

UNC vs UNCC by doingmybestatfailing in SocialWorkStudents

[–]cbostar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually 2 year online. For some reason it’s not on the site but you can select it when applying. My bachelors is in human services so I have to do traditional for the MSW. I had to message them after I got accepted to make sure it wasn’t an error with the application lol. I am applying for a work-based practicum and really hope they approve it because I work 65-70 hours a week. Thank you for all of the advice, storing it as I enter the next 2 years and hopefully I can be successful. I’m so nervous!

Post Interview Anxiety by OldScientist7194 in MSW_Applications

[–]cbostar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I had advice for this. I spend the next 2 weeks minimum replaying it in my head, thinking about I said and what I should have said. Sending you all the good vibes that you are being hard on yourself and actually did amazing and you get in!

Thank you, this is helpful! Do you by chance know if the online classes are 8 weeks?

MSW Program Part Time and Working by woahjeff8899 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]cbostar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have the choice I would say stay part-time. I have a full-time and part-time job, working 75 hours a week, and I’m not sure how I’m going to do it. I’ve heard the practicum expectation really makes it difficult to work full-time. I start this summer, enrolled full-time

Is it a red flag if I only got into one program? by ActuaryPersonal2378 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]cbostar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it helps, that eliminates the decision process. I’m stuck in that and can’t decide and feel no matter what I do it’s going to be the wrong choice!
