This program provides the first two years for transfer students who wish to pursue a career in social work or the human services field. Because of different requirements at four-year institutions, it is important that students work with advisors. Students planning to transfer to CSU-Pueblo should directly follow the plan below. Students transferring to Metro State University must consult with their program advisor, as Metro State has a slightly different articulation agreement.
NOTE: To be employed in the social work field it is expected that you will be able to pass background checks. This will include fingerprinting for the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and a Central Registry Inquiry.
