Field Hours for Generalist and Advanced Standing

  • 1.  Field Hours for Generalist and Advanced Standing

    Posted Jul 17, 2023 11:11

    Hi Everyone, 

    I have a rather basic question that I should know but I can't put my fingers on the actual regs.  For MSW programs, students need 900 hours total. 

    1. Is there a set rule on how many hours for 1st year (Generalist year) and 2nd year (Concentration year)?
    2. For Advanced Standing, the hours from their BSW would count towards their MSW hours?  For instance, if their BSW program required 400 hours, they would need 500 hours in their Advanced Standing?
    3. Link to the regs on this would be appreciated. 

    Thank you
