What our students say
"Completing the BSWIS degree through UVIC has been one of the most fulfilling and enriching experiences of my life. The learning opportunities provided by the faculty were rich and abundant, as were the collaborative sessions with fellow students. I have been strengthened through this learning and now enjoy the most rewarding career of my life. I look forward to returning to UVIC in the future to complete my MSW."

"My sentiments about the School of Social Work are likely similar to Harry Potter's regard of Hogwarts: it is a completely awe-inspiring and heartening place of learning! I have been inspirited by incredible professors and peers alike, and I have made friendships that I hope last a lifetime. The School of Social Work not only helped me to become an anti-oppressive social worker, but it also helped me become the person I am today."
- Chynna Howard (2013 Graduate, CWS)
"I truly appreciate the flexibility of the distance BSW program. It has provided me with the opportunity to earn my degree part-time and be a stay-at-home Mom. It gives me a space where I can go to expand and challenge my mind, but also gives me provides me with the time to make my family a priority."
