Graduate School of Social Work
Cost of Attendance
A professional social work education requires financial investment. Fortunately, more than 95 percent of our students receive scholarships, grants or stipends.
Many students pay for their education with a combination of scholarships, grants, work-study and student loans, as well as part-time work outside the school.
If you have questions about expenses or financial aid, please contact the GSSW Office of Admission.
