Texas A&M University-Kingsville

Texas A&M University-Kingsville awarded 12 bachelor's degrees in social work in the most recent reporting year, ranking #395 of the 587 colleges nationally that offer the degree. This is a small program, which cuts both ways: cohorts are tight and faculty access is easy, but course rotations can be less frequent and specialization options narrower than at a larger school.

50.2% 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. Transfer students actually outperform first-time entrants here (60.5% vs 46.3%), which is a good signal if you are coming from a community college.

The average student pays $12,812 a year after grants and scholarships — $1,650 below the $14,462 median across the 35 BSW colleges in Texas. 67.0% 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.
