Northwest Nazarene University
Bachelor of Arts in Social Work
Professional License Disclosures
Northwest Nazarene University's Social Work program is nationally accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE). Because of this accreditation NNU graduates in this program find their degree very portable to other states. Prospective students from outside the state of Idaho can use the table below to begin to investigate whether an NNU degree is right for them. As they do this due dilligence, they should keep in mind two things in mind: 1) each jurisdiction will likely have very specific state requirements that an applicant for a professional license must meet beyond the educational requirements; and 2) as a general rule it will be beneficial to a candidate to pursue formal licensure in Idaho and then apply to another state with that credential in hand.
