Each Fall the IUSSW will notify BSW majors of available scholarship opportunities. A full list of scholarships is available in the BSW Handbook. Below are scholarships of interest to IUB students:

BSW Child Welfare Scholars Program

The Child Welfare Scholars Program is designed to provide BSW students special course work and practicum experiences that lead to employment as a public child welfare worker in Indiana. Students who participate in the program receive financial support through the Department of Child Services (DCS). These scholars graduate with a minimum commitment of two years of employment with the DCS. BSW students who are interested in this opportunity will submit an application during the fall semester of the junior year. If selected, students will receive full in-state tuition, mandatory fees, and a stipend for the senior year to cover books, travel in practicum and additional training expenses required for participation in the program. Students must maintain full-time status (12 credit hour minimum), a minimum of 2.5 overall GPA, and a minimum of a 3.0 GPA in the social work courses.

Theodora Allen Memorial Scholarship (IUB only)

A fund established in memory of Dr. Theodora Allen, a former professor at the Bloomington campus. Preference is given to BSW students at the Bloomington campus. The application for this scholarship will be included in the Fall scholarship email sent to all BSW majors.
