Pre-Social Work
An Associate of Arts degree in FVCC’s Pre-Social Work Transfer Track prepares students for transfer to a university Social Work program.
Opportunities in the broad spectrum of social work include employment in mental health centers, mental institutions, welfare agencies, employment services, rehabilitation, parole, aftercare, outreach, and various social service agencies both private and public. The student is encouraged to work closely with their advisor in the selection of electives to ensure the maximum level of transferability.
Transfer Articulation Agreement
Students interested in the Bachelor of Social Work program at The University of Montana - Missoula can take nearly 80 lower division credits at FVCC. A cohort of accepted students start the distance learning program in the fall of each year. Students will be required to go to UM to meet with other members of the cohort and professors at least once or twice each semester. The courses in this program are sequential in nature so a student must attend each semester with that cohort or drop back into the next cohort. Students must apply and be accepted to the UM Social Work program a semester prior to enrolling in upper division classes whether they are attending UM campus or continuing at FVCC with the UM/FVCC partnership.
At least five of the eight out-of-department courses plus the UM Social Work equivalent courses (HS 100 , HS 210 and HS 250 ) must be completed or in process prior to applying. Often the senior-year internship may be completed in the Flathead Valley.
Suggested course of study for a transfer to The University of Montana - Missoula:
