I have a degree and want a route into social work.

01 / Start with your situation

Your first steps

1. Compare Lakehead and McMaster entry requirements against your degree, courses and relevant experience.
2. Ask admissions about equivalencies, field placements and the next intake; McMaster has separate university and supplementary deadlines.
3. Request a complete cost estimate and financial-aid assessment. If already trained in social work abroad, investigate credential/registration assessment first.

02 / Compare real options

Programs and organizations to explore

Open a program to see requirements, costs, funding and the official starting point.

03 / Check affordability

Possible funding

These are leads to assess individually. Loans must be repaid, and grants have conditions.

04 / Before you commit

Important distinctions

• Previous-degree entry and internationally trained social-worker recognition are different routes.
• Admission, placement arrangements and professional registration require separate checks.
