The Inner City Social Work Program located at 485 Selkirk Avenue is an inner-city extension of the Faculty of Social Work on the Fort Garry Campus. This BSW program is an ACCESS program, designed to support students who have traditionally faced systemic barriers common to inner-city life experience such as poverty, racism, school failure and marginalization, all factors preventing accessibility to post-secondary education. Candidates for the program must have a commitment to the profession of social work.

There are two BSW program options offered through the Inner City Social Work Program, full-time or part-time studies. Approximately twenty students are accepted directly into a four year full-time BSW program each spring, beginning their studies in September. A similar number of students are accepted into part-time studies annually for a May program start. The part-time BSW takes approximately six years to finish. Individuals considering the part-time option must be working in the human services field and have two complete years of related work experience.
