The MSW program reserves the right to request additional materials pertaining to program admission. The MSW program requires that all incoming students have successfully completed a baccalaureate degree in the liberal arts from an accredited institution of higher learning. The remaining earned academic credits can be distributed in any combination of course work. The applied statistics course provides exposure to objective knowledge development. The MSW Field Education Coordinator will make reasonable efforts to place MSW students in field placement.
Placement is dependent upon availability of resources in the community and in the department.
Acceptance into the MSW program does not guarantee acceptance by cooperating practicum settings. Up to 9 semester credits from a CSWE-accredited MSW program may be transferred to UAA and counted toward degree completion. Quarter credits will be converted to semester credits by multiplying quarter credits by two-thirds. Candidacy For Master of Social Work Degree 1.
