Thank you, i will update once i hear back :-) [/quote]

What kinds of programs did you apply for? LMFT? MSW?[/quote]

I applied to the MSW, it requires 16h of practicum a week, which means i have to quit my job. If anyone has any tips on what kind of jobs i could get part-time to support me while in school ( background finance, banking) , im open to ideas [/quote]

I'm about to finish a MSW program, and I have not had to quit my job. I did one of my internship days on Saturday and the other on a weekday and went to an 80% schedule at work. Is that possible for you?[/quote]

What do you mean by 80% schedule at work? Could you please share what that looks like i-e was it 3 days/week or 7-3am daily? Did they allow you to do it because you were working in social work already? Im working in Finamce, so not sure how my company will take it if im going to school for a degree not relevant to my job. Also, everything im reading online states that you cant work full time and do your MSW, as you wont have time to do all the readings, homework ect plus the school i applied to stated that practicums would be during business hours. How did you manage ? And what type of practicum did you find that was on weekends? TIA[/quote]
