The BSW Program at Universidad del Sagrado Corazon

Universidad del Sagrado Corazon awarded 3 bachelor's degrees in social work in the most recent reporting year, ranking #566 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.

51.7% 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 (63.2%) than full-time students (39.6%) — often a sign of a program built around people already working in the field. Transfer students actually outperform first-time entrants here (57.3% vs 46.7%), which is a good signal if you are coming from a community college.

The average student pays $13,211 a year after grants and scholarships — $4,861 above the $8,350 median across the 17 BSW colleges in Puerto Rico. 83.0% 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.
