Bryn Mawr College’s Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research ( GSSWSR) and The College of New Jersey have launched a partnership that will enable selected TCNJ students in a number of majors to apply for admission into the GSSWSR    Master of Social Service degree program as early as their sophomore year.

 

Our students who are majoring in sociology are eligible for this program along with those who are majoring in psychology, public health, women’s, gender, and sexuality studies, as well as those who serve as Bonner Scholars.

This is a great opportunity for our students for several reasons:

  1. TCNJ students selected for this program will receive a 50% tuition scholarship.
  2. There is the potential for course requirements to be waived based on undergraduate academic performance, up to three courses total.These courses will be in the form of one foundation level research course, one foundation theory course, and one elective. In order to waive these courses, TCNJ students will need to have earned a minimum of a B+ (3.3 or higher).
  3. The application fee is waived when applying.
  4. Students will be paired with a GSSWSR  faculty advisor, which is a great opportunity to receive additional mentoring.
