BOISE STATE UNIVERSITY
Northern Idaho Advanced
Standing Master of Social Work Program
No Additional Fees for Out-of-State Students
Boise State University now offers a one year Northern Idaho
Advanced Standing Master of Social Work Program for students
who have completed their bachelor’s degree in social work
from a program accredited by the Council on Social Work
Education. The program is self-funded. Total costs for the
38-credit program are $10,260 in 2007 for both Idaho
-students and students living out-of-state. Classes are
offered evenings, weekends and on-line.
Boise State University was founded in 1932 and, with 18,600
students, is the largest university in Idaho. The BSU
undergraduate social work program was established in 1966.
The MSW Program was established in 1991 and was first
accredited in 1992.
The Northern Idaho Advanced Standing MSW Program, with
classes offered in both Lewiston and Coeur d’Alene, was
initiated in June, 2006. The MSW is the first Boise State
University Master’s Program offered in Northern Idaho in
collaboration with Lewis-Clark State College. Courses are
offered in LCSC facilities and are taught by Boise State and
LCSC social work faculty members.
Boise State MSW Programs are intentionally small, providing
an informal climate that fosters close relationships among
students and faculty members. Students learn the knowledge
and skills necessary for successful advanced professional
practice with individuals, families, groups, organizations
and communities. The School’s philosophy of social and
economic justice, egalitarianism and respect for diversity
reflects a strengths perspective that addresses populations
at risk and prepares students for work
with diverse populations and issues.
Applications for the program’s second year—beginning in June
2007—will be reviewed beginning in January 2007. The program
will be offered contingent on receiving sufficient
appropriate applications.
