Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Exploring a degree in psychology opens doors to a range of fulfilling careers, both in clinical settings and beyond. Many prospective students are particularly interested in becoming social workers, where educational requirements vary by state. Understanding these requirements is essential if you want to pursue social work as a career pathway.

For example, social worker degree requirements in Utah specify that you will typically need at least a Bachelor’s degree in social work to get started, with a Master’s degree needed for advanced positions. Similarly, the Vermont education requirements for social workers emphasize graduate education for certain roles.

If you’re considering practice in other states, be aware of specific local criteria. For instance, the degree needed to be a social worker in Virginia and the Washington minimum degree requirement for social workers each have their own guidelines for licensure and educational background. Choosing an accredited online psychology program can help meet many of these requirements while offering the flexibility to study from anywhere.
