I attended the Brown School at Washington University for my MSW. The school is recognized as one of the top programs for social work, but in comparing my experience to friends and colleagues who attended different programs, I wouldn’t say that it was significantly better or different from other programs.
Some positives include: more scholarships available compared to other MSW programs, flexibility in what courses you take/ability to personalize your concentration, St. Louis is an affordable city to live in, and a variety of practicum placements are available.
Cons: There is not a strong sense of community for Wash U grad students, limited parking for graduate students, high cost of tuition, and professors are not always easily accessible.

Classes are not poorly structured for at least some of the Specialized Master Programs. Knowledge and skills learned in classes does not interest potential employees at all and cannot be transferred to usage in workplaces. School's career center distributed most of the job opportunities and resources to MBA students, and SMP students are left with limited and incompetent career advisors and little to zero references to job opportunities.
The coursework is detailed and prepares you for your next education level. Prior to classes starting there is an digital orientation in which you will go through videos from actual professors and slides showing you detailed information on what is expected of you, how to complete the necessary coursework, etc. Although challenging this prepares me for law school which is also challenging and I will enter my next level of education already with the necessary skills to excel.
