work curriculum at the time of admission to the university. This status,
however, does not guarantee admission to the professional social work
curriculum. Upon completion of 45 credit hours of college coursework and the
course SWRK 210: Social Work Services and Professional Roles, students
may submit an application for admission to the School of Social Work.
Application deadlines are January 15, May 15, and October 1 of each year.
A total of 122 credits
is required for completion of the degree. A maximum of 62 credit hours
required for completion of the degree at Western Michigan University may be
transferred from JCC.

Please refer to the Western Michigan University catalog for transfer admission
requirements, specific course information, program requirements, etc. For
