About Our Social Work Degree

Tailored for Working Adults

Course schedules are designed with working adults in mind. Each class meets once a week. Each student receives personalized attention in a small classroom setting.

Fully accredited by the Council on Social Work Education, the curriculum is exactly the same as Goshen’s semester-based social work program.

Surprisingly Affordable

Because we understand your needs and responsibilities as a working adult, students in the Adult Degree Completion programs at Goshen College pay a discounted tuition rate of $445 a credit hour. Financial aid is available to qualified students.

Is this for me?

Intended for adults with at least three years of work experience, and prior college experience (an Associate’s degree in Human Services is strongly preferred) the 39-41 credits earned through this program, combined with other credits earned from previous college and work experience, complete the 120 credits needed for a Bachelor of Science degree in Social Work.

Students who bring an associate degree in human services may be able to complete the program in 18 months.
