The online Master of Social Work degree is completed fully online with the exception of in-person field experiences. Your participation is expected and required much like in\u00a0face-to-face courses. That said, not all students are suited for online learning. The online MSW may not be the right fit for you if:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • You do not have unlimited access to high-speed internet<\/li>\n
  • You cannot type or type very slowly<\/li>\n
  • You do not have access or basic knowledge of computer and internet skills including software applications, uploading and downloading documents<\/li>\n
  • You have difficulty with time-management and\/or are unable to commit to 18 hours per week of coursework and an additional 10-15 hours for field placement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"tags":[1108],"class_list":["post-21625","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","tag-msw","topic-online-master-of-social-work"],"yoast_head":"\nIs the Online Master of Social Work right for you? | UCF Online<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The online Master of Social Work degree is completed fully online with the exception of in-person field experiences.
