Frequently Asked Questions

  1. I enrolled in the wrong section of one of the MasterTrack courses for my cohort. How do I change?

    The first step is to try to change sessions yourself. When you are in the course, you may see a button at the top that says "Reset my deadlines". If you have access to that button, you can click it and manually move yourself to the session that begins on a date that better suits your schedule. If you do not have the option to reset you can either just wait until the new session becomes available and then enroll or you can email ssw-mtc-support@umich.edu for assistance.

  2. I have a BSW does the University of Michigan offer an accelerated program?

    Yes, the University of Michigan has a three term Advanced Standing program, where students typically complete 45 credits in 12 months. All BSW degree requirements must be completed by Fall Orientation at the end of August.

  3. I have a work-study award, how do I find a job?

    To review a list of work-study positions, visit the U-M Student Employment Office website. When you see a position of interest, contact the hiring department to inquire about hiring procedures.

  4. I have many years of human service related experience; can I get any credit for that?

    No, the Council on Social Work Education does not allow accredited MSW programs to provide credit for work experience. However, experience does make it more likely that an applicant will be admitted and some scholarship aid is provided based on extensive experience..

  5. I have never taken a hybrid course before. What is a hybrid course?

    This hybrid certificate program combines pre-recorded videos that you view and work through at your own pace, as well as live interactive sessions, in which you will learn with the instructor and other participants by Zoom. Reading materials and study aids will be located on a course website that you can access throughout the program.

  6. I live out-of-state, how can I easily find a place to live? Or find a roommate?

    You can easily find a place to live through various websites or online newspaper listings. It is always recommended that you look at your housing arrangements in person before you sign a lease. You can find a roommate also enrolled in the School of Social Work online at the SSW Housing and Roommate finder.

  7. I need to complete a SAR training. Is it okay for me to only attend the SAR training offered as part of the University of Michigan Sexual Health Certificate Program?

    Courses in the Sexual Health Certificate Program are not available as independent courses outside of the complete program.

  8. I never received an email with the evaluation link. Help!

    The email with your evaluation was sent via Qualtrics to the email address you provided at registration. The email will be from the Office of Continuing Education. Some email hosts will kick this message into your spam, so be sure to check there. If you still cannot find the email, please contact ssw.conted@umich.edu for assistance.
