Section 1.19.00: Exemption from Foundation Field Education for BSW without Advanced Standing
Students with BSW from a CSWE-accredited program who did not receive advanced standing status may apply for an exemption from a portion of the requirements for field education. A maximum of 2 credits of field education, representing SW 515 "Foundation Field Education", may be filled by such an exemption, thereby reducing the required field education credit hours to 12 credits and increasing electives by 2 credits. The School of Social Work will consider competency based field education courses that were graded by letter, narrative evaluation, or by pass/fail, satisfactory/unsatisfactory or other evaluative scales.
MasterTrack students who have BSW degrees but did not meet the GPA minimum for advanced standing may still apply for an exemption from SW 515.
