New BSSW Online Students Reflect on their First Semester Experience

UTCSW new BSSW Online students were recently asked to reflect on their experience in the program. Everyone who was asked had positive things to say. Congrats to the program faculty and staff. And good luck to students as the second semester begins.

“The preparation that went into designing this program and the relationships I have gained from them are the most surprising to me during this semester. Significant thought went into this program and you can tell by the structure it has provided us as students.”

“My first semester in the Online BSSW Program has been a gratifying experience that has left me feeling like I am in good hands at UTK. Throughout the semester, the professors have challenged us academically in ways that will most certainly have lasting impacts on our careers as social workers.”

“During my first semester of the BSSW program I am most surprised about the different ways I have been challenged through our courses. I have been challenged to critically think and to evaluate my values more over this semester than I have my entire life.”

“This is the first semester I have attended synchronous online classes and the level of engagement seemed to equal or even surpass in-person classes.”

“Overall, I can’t speak highly enough about my experience so far in the Online BSSW program. I am beyond grateful for the opportunity and privilege to be here.”
