VI. PROGRAM POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
All students are responsible for meeting the policies of their respective graduate schools. In
instances where the policy of the Collaborative MSW Program differs from that of either UW
Green Bay’s or UW Oshkosh’s graduate school, the Collaborative MSW Policy takes
precedence. The graduate policies of the UW Oshkosh School of Graduate Studies may be
found at:
http://www.uwosh.edu/grad_school/policies.htm.
The graduate policies of the UW Green Bay Graduate Programs may be found at:
http://www.uwgb.edu/catalog/grad/randr.htm.
Refer to these respective Web-pages for graduate policies of the respective institutions. As
students are asked to designate the degree granting institution they plan to attend, and since
policies may differ, it will be important for students enrolled in the MSW Program to follow the
graduate policies of their respective degree granting institutions.
To help students access appropriate policies, they are grouped under four headings:
A. Admissions: Policies, Procedures and Standards
B. Program Standards and Expectations for Performance
C. Student Services and Equitable Treatment
D. Insufficient Performance in the Program: Criteria and Procedures
A. Admission: Policies, Procedures and Standards
Admission to the MSW Collaborative Program is a competitive and complex process. MSW
application procedures and criteria are outlined below.
Admission Criteria
The Collaborative MSW Program seeks applicants who are interested in developing and
strengthening their social work skills by completing their MSW degree. The Program is
particularly interested in applicants who want to develop expertise and leadership in the areas of
direct practice or in administration/management in human service settings. The MSW Program
seeks applicants who have a commitment to serving those who are vulnerable, who face multiple
challenges in their lives, and who may be seeking services in public agency settings. Applicants
should be comfortable with developing their expertise in working from a family focused
perspective, with developing skills to work in both rural and metropolitan areas, and in working
with clients from diverse cultures and circumstances.
