Social Work Program

Some students select a course of study that requires a four-year degree of which two years may be completed at Northwestern Michigan College through completion of the Associate in Science and Arts degree (ASA).

The social work program is designed to be a transfer program to other four year schools with certified social work programs. It is specifically designed to fit into the Ferris State University Social Work Program at the University Center in Traverse City and on the Ferris main campus in Big Rapids. When choosing this program of study, it is highly recommended that you meet with Linda Anderson, the social work coordinator, in the Social Science Discipline, at (231) 995-1294, to assist you in building a program that will transfer smoothly. Social work is a rapidly growing field that employs people in many different areas of work and requires very specific training and course work.
