“I truly enjoyed being a blended MSW student because it allowed me to experience life on campus, immerse myself in the culture, and build in-person connections with classmates and professors. Balancing a full-time job and navigating traffic to get to FAU’s Boca campus was challenging, so having the option for online classes was a tremendous blessing. The blended format provided the perfect balance for managing my already hectic schedule”
– Pamela Brooks, MSW alumna
MSW ON-CAMPUS BLENDED PROGRAM
Our MSW On-Campus Blended program can be completed in two, three, or four years for students whose bachelor’s degree is in a discipline other than social work. We also offer a two, three, four, or five semester Advanced Standing program for students who have achieved a solid foundation in social work from an accredited Bachelor of Social Work program within the last five years.
Our MSW courses are offered on our Boca Raton and Davie campus, with some courses available online. Students come from a broad range of backgrounds, representing a variety of undergraduate majors and universities. Our graduates are eligible to apply for licensure as clinical social workers in Florida and elsewhere. They go into a variety of fields, including family services, child welfare, gerontology, public policy, domestic violence, mental health, research and evaluation, addictions, and criminal justice.
The MSW On-Campus Blended program uses a year-round, rolling admissions process for both the traditional and advanced standing tracks!

“The faculty members I have studied under at the master’s level at FAU have equipped me with the tools necessary to think critically and apply my knowledge in real-world contexts, which will be invaluable as I pursue my future career. The program has been incredibly insightful.”
