MSW Two-Year Program

Typically, students are enrolled full-time for two years of consecutive fall and spring semesters, earning 60 credits and 1,200 field hours. They usually take three or four classroom courses each term, spending one or two days a week in the classroom and three days a week in their field education placement.

Applications will only be reviewed when all required documentation has been received and the student has been admitted. After careful review, students are then sent an official letter describing any loans and scholarship for which they are eligible.
