Online MSW Schools Accredited by the CSWE

On OnlineMSWPrograms.com, we have created a school profile page for each and every university that offers an online or hybrid MSW program. To learn more about a school’s program(s) including program details, field education requirements, student eligibility, and admission requirements, click on the school name below. All online MSW schools on this page are accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE).

Currently, we bucket online MSW programs into two categories:

Programs with 100% online classes: which do not require students to visit the campus during the program (38 schools)
Programs with a campus residency requirement: which require students to visit the campus two or fewer times per year (13 schools)

Programs that require students to visit the campus three or more times per year are classified as hybrid MSW programs on the site. All online MSW programs, even those with 100% online classes, require students to complete a minimum number of hours of field education at a local health services agency. The majority of universities have field education coordinators that help students arrange field education placements.
