Department of Social Work Education
Advising Handbook
This BA Advising Handbook and Advising Worksheets (links below) include a supplemental
BA Advising Guide to the University General Catalog and Schedule of Courses. It is updated yearly to
provide helpful program planning information for social work majors (4-year & transfer
students), counselors and advisors in other programs, colleges and universities. The
Advising Worksheets are to be discussed with your assigned academic advisor. This
edition of the Handbook applies to students whose catalog year is fall 1999, or later.
For catalog years prior to fall 1999, please consult your academic advisor and the
prior version of the advising booklet available in the department office, PHS 128.
The links below will serve as a quick guide to your course planning, but should NOT
be considered a substitute for meeting with your social work advisor. If you should
have any specific advising questions please call the main office at (559) 278-3992
to determine your specific academic advisor.
