I have a year and half left of my social work undergrad but come the end of next semester I need to start applying for grad school if i am gonna go... I am looking for a some good schools in TX where I live and also in NC, I have looked in to Baylor because they don't reqiure the GRE and offer international social work. I have also looked in UNC because that is my DREAM SCHOOL! I just don't really know where I want to go. I also am afaird of not getting into any good ones becasue my GPA so far is just average. I don't really know for sure what field I want to go in, I would like to work with children. And with international adoption. If you have any helpful info let me know...
