Financial Aid

Students admitted into the PhD in Social Work Program will receive funding to cover the costs of tuition and fees for the full degree up to 5 years. Once enrolled, students may have the opportunity to receive stipends for grant funded research positions with Baylor PhD faculty. Students are made aware of the process as opportunities become available.

Additionally, qualified PhD students at the Garland School may apply to teach one or more courses in our Online MSW Program as adjunct faculty members. Those living within commuting distance of campus may also apply to teach in our residential BSW and MSW programs.
