In 1988, the COUNCIL ON SOCIAL WORK EDUCATION IN USA testified that “…the admission requirements, levels, duration and content of the two-year postgraduate program… at Loyola College of Social Sciences with a specialization in Medical and Psychiatric Social Work are comparable to the organization and content of Social Work education as offered by graduate schools of social work in the United States. THUS YOUR MASTER OF SOCIAL WORK DEGREE MAY BE REGARDED AS EQUIVALENT TO A MASTER’S DEGREE EARNED FROM AN ACCREDITED AMERICAN GRADUATE SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WORK.”
