TAKE THE NEXT STEPS TO APPLY TO THE MSW PROGRAM
We are no longer accepting applications for the Summer 2026 cohort.
Applications for regular and advanced standing students for the Summer 2027 MSW cohort will open on August 1, 2026, and the application deadline is January 15, 2027.
The MSW Program admissions committee will only review complete applications, so applicants are encouraged to apply early and carefully follow all application instructions. Depending on the number of applications received and available space in each cohort, we may offer a second application deadline in the spring. If a second application date is warranted, it will be posted on this website.
Admission to the MSW Program requires two separate acceptances:
- Admission to UW-Stevens Point, and
- Admission to the MSW Program.
Because these are separate processes, applicants must complete two distinct applications (see steps below). UWSP admission decisions are typically made quickly, while MSW Program decisions take longer and will be issued after the application deadline has passed. Applicants will receive separate decision letters for each component.
Step 1. Review Admission Standards.
