We are very happy that you have decided to obtain a graduate degree here at The Catholic University of America. Graduate social work credentials will help you advance in the profession. Once you have completed your studies, you may be taking a national certification exam.

Each state has unique requirements for those who wish to obtain licensure. Please determine the licensure requirements in the state(s) where you plan to practice. You can do this by looking at this website, which contains an electronic list for each state’s board of social work. We urge you to review the state(s) of interest to determine whether you may require any additional course or continuing education requirements.
