Kansas Wesleyan University

Kansas Wesleyan University graduated 6 social work students in the most recent reporting year, placing it #501 of 587 BSW-awarding colleges. Small programs like this one tend to compete on individual attention and placement relationships rather than breadth.

48.2% 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. Unusually, part-time students complete at a higher rate here (61.4%) than full-time students (38.8%) — often a sign of a program built around people already working in the field. Transfer students actually outperform first-time entrants here (56.7% vs 38.7%), which is a good signal if you are coming from a community college.

The average student pays $22,930 a year after grants and scholarships — $2,403 above the $20,527 median across the 11 BSW colleges in Kansas. 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.
