BASW: How to Apply

Application Date

Autumn Quarter 2008: Still Accepting Applications
Autumn Admission ONLY. Admission is competitive. Applications will not be reviewed until all required material has been received. Late applications will be reviewed on a space-available basis.

Applying for admission to the Bachelor of Arts in Social Welfare program is a two-part process requiring an application to the University and an application to the BASW program.

Plan Ahead:

The BASW program admits new students for autumn quarter only. The priority application date is April 1. Applicants should have all required forms and transcripts submitted on or before April 1 to be considered "on-time". Applications received after the priority application date will be reviewed on a space-available basis and may be placed on a wait list. Admission is competitive.
