About 75 percent of all recent graduates are employed in social work or related human service jobs.  Many also pursue graduate study at such institutions as the University of Maryland, Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania, New York University, and Catholic University.

McDaniel’s social work program is one of only two programs at private colleges in Maryland accredited by the Council on Social Work Education. Graduates of the program are eligible for licensure at the baccalaureate level in Maryland and in other states that have licensure for BSW. Graduates of accredited programs in social work may receive up to one year of advanced standing in selected graduate programs in social work.
