Product Description
Written by a former social work admissions director at a top-ranking school of social work, this book helps master of social work (MSW) applicants improve their graduate school applications and decide which school of social work is right for them. With examples of tracking sheets, interviews, and biographical statements, this resource reveals the qualities admissions committees look for in applicants. A listing of schools accredited by the Council on Social Work Education and the Canadian Association of Schools of Social Work is included with a checklist of questions to ask when visiting schools. Candid answers from surveys of the admissions staff at social work graduate programs throughout the United States also point out the most common mistakes applicants make. This new edition has been updated to reflect current trends in social work education.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth its weight in gold, October 17, 2005
This review is from: The Social Work Graduate School Applicant's Handbook: The Complete Guide to Selecting and Applying to MSW Programs (Paperback)
This guide was extremely helpful. It gives insight into what admission committees look for in applicants. The do's and dont's sections of the guide are a great resource as well. I highly recommend this guide book to anyone who is interested in the field of social work and anyone who isn't sure if the field is right for them or not. This guide gives great insight into the field of social work and how it is organized.

5.0 out of 5 stars I feel much better prepared to start my MSW, August 7, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Social Work Graduate School Applicant's Handbook: The Complete Guide to Selecting and Applying to MSW Programs (Paperback)
After reading this book I feel like I know more about the process of getting into a Masters of Social Work (MSW) program and going through it. I'm not so nervous about applying and I really enjoyed the information each school provided at the end of the book concerning their application process, usual mistakes in the application, and what makes each school's program unique. If you are considering going for your MSW then I would highly recommend this book.
