Penn's Advanced Standing MSW program caters to outstanding BSW graduates from CSWE-accredited programs within the last five years. This selective program admits a small cohort of students who complete their MSW in just ten months through one non-credit seminar, ten courses, and an advanced field placement. The University of Pennsylvania's School of Social Policy & Practice offers this prestigious Master of Social Work (MSW) Program, recognized as one of the nation's top-ranked and most esteemed social work education institutions. Our program (rated 5th nationally by Princeton Review's Gourman Report and 12th by U.S. News and World Report) equips future social work leaders with skills to serve individuals, families, groups, and communities across local, national, and international settings. Featuring a newly updated curriculum, Penn's MSW program combines progressive approaches with a time-honored commitment to social justice and transformative change.

Qualification Requirements
Applicants must submit transcripts detailing all undergraduate and postgraduate study via the online application. This includes coursework conducted at an applicant's degree-granting institution(s) as well as in study abroad programs and at institutions out of which an applicant may have transferred.
Please be advised that transcripts reflecting more than two semesters of study at institutions based outside of the United States must be evaluated on a course-by-course basis by a third-party evaluation service such as WES or Educational Perspectives. This applies even if the studies were conducted in English and even if the transcript is printed in English. Applicants with these international transcripts should upload their university-issued transcripts into the online application and order their official, third-party evaluations sent to the School of Social Policy & Practice. Please note that these international transcripts cannot be considered official until they have been evaluated and that their respective applications cannot be reviewed until the evaluations have arrived in the Admissions Office.
For international students whose first language is not English, we require official TOEFL or IELTS scores taken in the last two years. A minimum of 100 on the Internet-based (iBT) TOEFL or a minimum Overall Band Score of 7.5 on the IELTS is required.
