Institute for Clinical Social Work

What is the cost of studying for a year at Institute for Clinical Social Work?

For the 2024-25 academic year, reported full-time graduate tuition at ICSW was the same for in-state and out-of-state students. A part-time per-credit charge was also reported. These are tuition figures, not a complete estimate of living and educational expenses.

• Full-time graduate tuition: $26,750 for the academic year.
• Required graduate fees in the reported figures: $0.
• Part-time graduate tuition: $1,305 per credit hour.

Students should budget separately for books, transportation, housing, food, and any program-specific expenses. The current tuition schedule may differ from the 2024-25 figures, and a part-time student's bill depends on credits taken. For financing, eligible graduate students can ask about federal student loans and any institutional assistance, then compare the resulting aid offer with their full cost of attendance. Published tuition is not the same as an individual student's final out-of-pocket cost.

What are the work-study opportunities at Institute for Clinical Social Work?

Students should distinguish paid work from clinical training when planning an ICSW degree. A supervised placement may build professional experience without operating as a paid student job, while ordinary part-time employment does not necessarily satisfy clinical-training requirements.

Federal Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, is a form of need-based aid earned through an approved job rather than a grant paid automatically. Applicants who need employment income should ask ICSW's financial-aid office whether they can receive Work-Study, how positions are obtained, and whether a proposed job can coexist with their course and clinical schedules.
