Cedarville University

Cedarville University's BSW program produced 29 graduates in the most recent reporting year — #219 of 587 colleges awarding the degree nationally, putting it squarely in the middle of the field by size.

51.8% 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. Full-time students complete at 70.0% against 47.2% for part-time, so the part-time route takes more persistence at Cedarville University. First-time entrants complete at 72.3% against 47.6% for transfers — worth checking how transfer credits map onto the practice sequence.

The average student pays $27,150 a year after grants and scholarships — $9,306 above the $17,844 median across the 38 BSW colleges in Ohio. 20.0% 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.
