Social Work Degree Online

Jeffery Said:

can i get a degree in social work online? if so whos a accreditted college?

We Answered:

I would be careful about online degress in general, but particularly in social work. The whole basis of social work is, well, social...and it requires a lot of fieldwork. I'm going to school in the fall for my MSW, and every school I've looked at requires several hours/days a week at an internship or field placement. I would say it wouldn't be worth much to have a social work degree from a completely online program, simply because it gives you no physical experience in the field, which is critical. If I were you, I would try to go back part time. Yes, it's expensive, but in the end, won't it be worth it? If you want anything badly enough, you can make it work. Good luck!
