Admission to the MSW Program

Non-Degree Program students are encouraged to consider applying to our Master of Social Work program. Completing Non-Degree Program courses could lighten your course load before applying to the MSW program and help you make a decision about a career in social work. However, Non-Degree status does not constitute, guarantee, or imply admission or readmission into any program at UConn.
