How to go about switching major?
I am currently a Social work student in Michigan. I am considering switching to a Bachelors in Human Services degree that is online because it will allow me to take more variety of courses and electives that match my interest, while not steering away from the helping profession. I believe my social work classes would transfer toward the degree. I'm not sure if the degrees will land me the same jobs and I feel Human service degrees are less common now days. Seeking input and advice. #Transferring #social-work #Human-services
