Louisiana Christian University

Louisiana Christian University graduated 7 social work students in the most recent reporting year, placing it #482 of 587 BSW-awarding colleges. Small programs like this one tend to compete on individual attention and placement relationships rather than breadth.

44.0% 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. Unusually, part-time students complete at a higher rate here (50.3%) than full-time students (33.8%) — often a sign of a program built around people already working in the field. Transfer students actually outperform first-time entrants here (38.3% vs 29.0%), which is a good signal if you are coming from a community college.

The average student pays $17,011 a year after grants and scholarships — about the same as the $17,011 median across the 9 BSW colleges in Louisiana. 57.0% of first-time students receive Pell Grants, a high share that usually reflects a student body with substantial financial need — and a financial aid office practiced at handling it. 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.
