Why Earn an MSW Online From Baylor?

Two Program Tracks

We offer two online programs that can be completed in 12 to 36 months: the standard MSW and the advanced standing MSW.
Accreditation

MSW@Baylor is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education and will prepare you to pursue licensure after graduation.
Two Specializations

You can choose one of two specializations to focus on during your advanced studies: Clinical Practice or Community Practice.
You will be challenged to think about the ethical integration of faith and social work practice while learning the skills and theories necessary to make meaningful, informed change. As an MSW@Baylor graduate, you will be prepared to serve as a trusted resource for your clients, no matter their personal background. GRE scores are not required to apply.
