Social Work Programs in Washington

Social Work prepares students for licensed practice helping individuals and families navigate health, housing, and welfare systems. Pay is set mostly by public and nonprofit employers: steady, mission-driven, and below the all-major median.

Programs below are ranked only when a college figure rests on at least 100 graduates. Programs on 30 to 99 graduates carry a small-program flag and are listed, not ranked. Anything smaller shows the national median for the major, badged as such.
