Degree Requirements
The graduate social work program grants the M.S.W. degree when students have completed the following degree requirements:
- 60 credit hours of class (48 hours) and field (12 hours) for regular program students.
- 36 credit hours of class (30 hours) and field (6 hours) for advanced standing students.
- To remain in good standing, students must maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.0.
- Part-time students must demonstrate acceptable progress towards the degree.
- Students take four electives in the concentration year, with one elective from Integrative Content electives (Aging, Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Children, Youth and Families or School Social Work) and one elective from Advanced Methods electives required.
- Testing out of foundation courses, except for practice courses and field practicum, is an option. Students are given the opportunity to waive up to 6 credit hours by taking the equivalent of a final examination for a course, offered at the beginning of the semester. These credits must be replaced by electives.
Note: For students with disabilities or special learning needs, the program works closely with the Office of Disabled Student Services regarding special accommodations.
