Advanced Standing Program

The Advanced Standing program offers graduates of CSWE-accredited B.S.W. programs in the United States the opportunity to accelerate their pursuit of the Master of Science degree. Advanced Standing students may receive up to 27 transfer credits and matriculate at the School of Social Work as second-year students, enabling them to earn their degree in three terms. Advanced Standing Program students begin their program with an intensive four-week program in early August.

Financial aid eligibility will only be reviewed when FAFSA data has been received and the student has been admitted. After careful review, students are then sent an email describing any loans and scholarship for which they are eligible.
