Extended One-Year Residence
NOTE: As of Fall 2024, we are no longer accepting applications to the OYR pathway.
For employed social workers, the Extended One-Year Residence (OYR) includes one practicum placement of 900 hours. Clinically supervised direct social work employment is required for entry into this pathway. Applicants must have provided two years of direct services to clients. An employment-based practicum learning option is available to students employed in agencies that provide an appropriate educational experience as determined by the Office of Practicum Education & Community Partnerships. The period of study ranges from three to four years.
This pathway is available at our Washington Square, Rockland County, and Westchester County campuses, and students can begin in either the fall or spring semesters.
