  • Biological Principles
  • General Psychology
  • General Sociology
  • Macroeconomics/Microeconomics
  • Students are admitted to the B.S.W. program only in the summer and fall terms. The application process in the BSW program includes:
  • a separate application to the limited access phase made to the School of Social Work prior to the student's commencement of studies in social work
  • a completed declaration of major form indicating social work as the major field of study
  • A student who does not meet the above admission requirements may be registered as a "pending student." Pending students are only permitted to register for certain, limited courses. Students, who are pending, need to contact the B.S.W. coordinator to discuss their situation and to devise a degree plan.

    Admission decisions are made by the B.S.W. admissions committee in consultation with the B.S.W. faculty committee and the director of the School of Social Work. A student may appeal a decision by following the procedures outlined in the Policy on Student Grievances found in the UCF Undergraduate Student Handbook.

    Prospective or newly admitted undergraduate students need to schedule an appointment with the undergraduate (B.S.W.) program coordinator to review course requirements and expectations of the program.
