Announcing the new part-time CEL MSW Program
The School of Social Work (SSW) and the College of Extended Learning (CEL) are pleased to announce the launch of a new CEL Master of Social Work (MSW) Program. This new part-time MSW Program will begin during Summer Session 2009.
This new program has been designed to increase access and options. The Winter 2009 issue of the Journal of Social Work Education ranks San Francisco State University's School of Social Work first in the nation in student selectivity, the ratio of applications to acceptances. Potential students have asked for a part-time program so they can continue full-time employment and meet other obligations.
