Does anyone know if it is possible to become a high school or college guidance counselor with an MSW? I'm not certain that I want to be a guidance counselor, but it is a possibility...I think I have decided on getting my MSW though because it seems that there are many more options available with that degree than with a masters in counseling (however I don't like the stigma that social workers are often given...)
The programs I am most interested in are at Boston University, Smith, Simmons, Boston Colege, San Diego State, CA State at LA, and UCLA...Any tips or thoughts on which of these schools may be a better school, be a better deal, or have a better program for someone interested in the clinical side of social work?
Last question- I know that the salary isn't great for social workers, but what is about the average, and which sector of social workers usually make the most money?
Thanks SO much!
