How soon after I take the Masters level exam (LMSW) can I take the Clinical level exam (LCSW)?

Once you pass the Masters exam, you will need to complete all the supervision requirements for the LCSW license. Once all those requirements are met, you will then need to apply for the LCSW. Once the Board approves your LCSW application, you will be given permission to take the Clinical exam.
