📣 ACTION ALERT: Social Work and Federal Student Loan Limits

SSWR has joined leading national social work organizations in urging the U.S. Department of Education to recognize Master of Social Work (MSW) and Doctor of Social Work (DSW) degrees as professional degrees under federal law.

Why does this matter? The designation affects the federal student loan limits available to students pursuing these degrees. Restricting access to federal financing could make graduate social work education less accessible and further strain the pipeline into a workforce that is already essential to behavioral health, child welfare, schools, health care, aging services, and communities across the country.

MSW and DSW degrees meet the Department’s criteria for professional degrees. Now we need Congress to help make that clear.

We’re asking social work researchers, educators, practitioners, students, and advocates to contact their U.S. Representatives and Senators and urge them to:

1. Support recognition of MSW and DSW degrees as professional degrees
2. Protect access to federal student loans for social work students
3. Consider the workforce consequences of limiting access to graduate social work education

Your voice matters. Share your story and help protect the future of the social work workforce.
