The BSW Program at Eastern Nazarene College

Eastern Nazarene College graduated 2 social work students in the most recent reporting year, placing it #575 of 587 BSW-awarding colleges. Small programs like this one tend to compete on individual attention and placement relationships rather than breadth.

39.8% of students complete their degree, below the 50.4% median across BSW-awarding colleges — worth asking the department about directly. Students who finish take a median of 5 years to do it. Full-time students complete at 59.3% against 34.0% for part-time, so the part-time route takes more persistence at Eastern Nazarene College. First-time entrants complete at 70.0% against 27.6% for transfers — worth checking how transfer credits map onto the practice sequence.

The average student pays $21,894 a year after grants and scholarships — $2,966 below the $24,860 median across the 12 BSW colleges in Massachusetts. 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.
