Residential Advanced Standing Program—36 Credit Hour 

Field Instruction for Advanced Standing students is concurrent with specific coursework (see table below). Advanced standing students are required to complete one internship at the concentration level, either Advanced Clinical Practice (ACP) or Advanced Integrated Practice (AIP). This field placement is a minimum of 500 hours and typically occurs across two semesters in one academic year. Students are placed in social work settings for a minimum of sixteen hours a week, which meets the requirements for earning three credits per semester.

  • Only MSW students who are in the concentration portion of the program and are staff members at the field site may provide task supervision 

  • The designated concentration level MSW student/staff member may provide task supervision to BSSW interns only. 

  • The Office of Field Instruction (O.F.I.) will be responsible for reviewing and approving any such requests prior to the start of the internship 

  • The O.F.I. will ensure that the BSSW intern is fully informed and will document the intern’s consent. The intern will agree to communicate timely with the assigned field liaison should any concerns or issues arise that could impact the intern’s learning. 

  • In such a case, the O.F.I. will inform the agency-based field instructor and a decision will be made to assign the student to a different task supervisor or to relocate the student to a new field placement agency. 

Placement Planning

All social work internships are expected to be in person and on site at an approved agency. The School of Social Work engages in an individualized placement planning process with each residential and online student.  Students are required to complete specific field related documentation (dependent on which program they are in), submit a current resume and participate in a field placement planning related meetings with an assigned Internship Placement Coordinator (also know as Placement Specialists in the online program). The residential and online placement planning protocol and procedure are outlined below.
