Anyone recommend USC's online Master of Social Work?

I'm real interested in the online Master of Social Work at the University of Southern California. Is it a quality program? Are they helpful in getting practicums set up for you in your own community? Also, how are people paying for this spendy program? Any insights would be helpful.

I don't know about their MSW program but a former coworker of mine completed their MAT (masters in teaching) program a couple of years ago. The coursework was rigorous and she did internships in local schools. She now has a public school teaching job in a large city and seems happy. Have you looked at the program at Rutgers, the tuition is probably cheaper as it's a public university. And here's a list of other accredited online programs.
