Orientation to the School and Its Degree Programs

If you are interested in receiving an orientation to the School of Social Work BSW or MSW programs or just want more information, contact Tammy Freelin, Student Services Coordinator, to set up an individual time to meet and discuss the MU School of Social Work and what it has to offer you.

Advising on degree programs

Each student enrolled in the School of Social Work is assigned a Faculty Advisor to assist them with many aspects of their educational plan. Advisors are also excellent resources for career, job opportunities, and specialization questions. It is strongly recommended that students make an appointment to meet with their advisors at least once each semester, especially before Registration to ensure the best course to the desired degree. Advisors can be reached by e-mail, phone, or signing up for an appointment on the Advising Schedules posted outside their doors prior to Preregistration each semester.

To learn whom your Faculty Advisor is, contact the Main Office at (573) 882-6206. If you’re new to MU, transferring in to the School of Social Work, or have coursework and requirement questions about our degree programs, contact Tammy Freelin to set up an individual time to discuss your plan of study.

Registration

Continuing undergraduate students may obtain their Registration form, containing their registration passcode from their Faculty Advisor. Continuing graduate students do not require a Registration form or registration passcode to register. If you are a continuing student, click here for the Registrar. All social work students (undergraduate through graduate) may register for courses in person at 208 Brady Commons, through PAWS (Phone Access with Students) by dialing 882-3700, or myZou during designated Registration/Add/Drop periods. First-time freshman or students on probation must register in person at 208 Brady Commons.

It is advised that all students make an appointment to meet with their Faculty Advisor prior to registration each semester. Advisors can be reached by e-mail, phone, or signing up for an appointment on the Advising Schedules posted outside their doors prior to Preregistration each semester.

The School of Social Work BSW program participates in the MU Degree Audit Reporting System (DARS). This system is an automated record of a student’s progress toward completion of a degree. DARS reflects the distribution of all academic credit earned toward degree completion, including credit from MU, transfer credit (including equivalencies if appropriate), and courses currently in progress. Students can access a copy of their individual Degree Audit through myZou, their Faculty Advisor during Registration, or by contacting Tammy Freelin.
