Admissions

Please note: This program begins in September of each year. The next application deadline is January 14, 2011.

The Interdisciplinary Doctoral Program is part of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GRS). Thus, application is through the Graduate School, not the School of Social Work. Admission is open to those who hold a Master of Social Work degree or who hold a master’s degree from an allied discipline or profession and who have professional experience related to the objectives of social work. In addition to the application, applicants must submit: transcripts, results of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) or the Miller Analogies Test (MAT), three letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose, and a writing sample.
