Hawaii Pacific University

Hawaii Pacific University graduated 9 social work students in the most recent reporting year, placing it #441 of 587 BSW-awarding colleges. Small programs like this one tend to compete on individual attention and placement relationships rather than breadth.

35.6% 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.

The average student pays $30,950 a year after grants and scholarships — $13,748 above the $17,202 median across the 3 BSW colleges in Hawaii. 38.0% 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.
