What GRE score is needed to get into the MSW program?
In response to recent trends across the country, the MU MSW program no longer requires submission of GRE scores.
What are the deadline dates for applying to the MSW program?
If the deadline falls on a weekend or University holiday, applications are due the first business day thereafter. Applications received after Early Priority dates, but by Rolling dates are considered on a first-come, first-serve basis for any unclaimed admissions seats in the upcoming class. School of Social Work scholarships are not available to Rolling applicants. These dates supersede deadlines which may appear in earlier publications. We welcome early applications.
