MSW Plans of Study
To meet the diverse needs of our student body we offer several plans of study. Students with an
earned bachelor’s in social work (BSW) from an accredited CSWE program may be eligible to complete
the 30 credit hour advanced standing program in 9 months or over 2 years. Students who do not have
a BSW can complete the entire 60 credit hour MSW program as a full-time or part-time student.
