The BSW Program at Texas A&M University-Central Texas

In the latest year of federal data, Texas A&M University-Central Texas graduated 27 social work students, placing it #234 of 587 BSW programs nationally. Cohorts of this size typically mean seminar-scale classes in the practice sequence rather than lecture halls.

63.6% 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.

The average student pays $1,794 a year after grants and scholarships — $12,668 below the $14,462 median across the 35 BSW colleges in Texas. 80.0% 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.

Figures from IPEDS, U.S. Department of Education. Completion and net-price comparisons are against the 618 BSW-awarding colleges in this directory.
