The BSW Program at Texas Christian University

Texas Christian University's BSW program produced 32 graduates in the most recent reporting year — #314 of 587 colleges awarding the degree nationally, putting it squarely in the middle of the field by size.

70.4% 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. First-time entrants complete at 82.0% against 66.2% for transfers — worth checking how transfer credits map onto the practice sequence.

The average student pays $41,848 a year after grants and scholarships — $27,386 above the $14,462 median across the 35 BSW colleges in Texas. 16.0% 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.

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