The BSW Program at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay

In the latest year of federal data, University of Wisconsin-Green Bay graduated 24 social work students, placing it #254 of 587 BSW programs nationally. Cohorts of this size typically mean seminar-scale classes in the practice sequence rather than lecture halls.

48.5% 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.

The average student pays $11,429 a year after grants and scholarships — $4,278 below the $15,707 median across the 16 BSW colleges in Wisconsin. 36.0% 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.
