BSW Practicum Reminders & News
Aug 24, 2026
*Reminder* this section of the newsletter is for all BSW students—from incoming students to those currently completing their practicum.
With 100+ students across four or more cohorts, staying in communication is essential. Please make it a habit to check the Undergraduate newsletter (this site) and your PSU email regularly so you don’t miss important updates, deadlines, forms, registration information, or program reminders.
We know there’s a lot to keep track of, which is why we created this newsletter—to keep important BSW information and communications together in one place.
