The BSW Program at Andrews University

Andrews University graduated 13 social work students in the most recent reporting year, placing it #370 of 587 BSW-awarding colleges. Small programs like this one tend to compete on individual attention and placement relationships rather than breadth.

54.5% of students complete their degree, close to the 50.4% median across BSW colleges nationally. Students who finish take a median of 5 years to do it. First-time entrants complete at 72.0% against 56.5% for transfers — worth checking how transfer credits map onto the practice sequence.

The average student pays $24,728 a year after grants and scholarships — $7,181 above the $17,548 median across the 22 BSW colleges in Michigan. 28.0% of first-time students receive Pell Grants. Net price is the number that matters when comparing programs, not sticker tuition — and because most social work roles are with government or nonprofit employers, graduates are typically eligible for Public Service Loan Forgiveness.

Figures from IPEDS, U.S. Department of Education. Completion and net-price comparisons are against the 618 BSW-awarding colleges in this directory.
