The BSW Program at Concordia College at Moorhead

Concordia College at Moorhead graduated 7 social work students in the most recent reporting year, placing it #496 of 587 BSW-awarding colleges. Small programs like this one tend to compete on individual attention and placement relationships rather than breadth.

69.2% of students here finish their degree, against a national median of 50.4% across the BSW colleges in this directory — a meaningful margin. Students who finish take a median of 5 years to do it. Unusually, part-time students complete at a higher rate here (77.0%) than full-time students (57.7%) — often a sign of a program built around people already working in the field.

The average student pays $25,190 a year after grants and scholarships — $4,272 above the $20,918 median across the 17 BSW colleges in Minnesota. 21.0% 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.
