Ethics in Admissions.

Born, Catherine E.; Carroll, Donald J.

Journal of Social Work Education, v24 n1 p79-85 Win 1988

A study of social work graduate program admissions data for 1975-1984 shows that as applications have decreased, acceptances have increased. The trend toward liberalized admissions raises a number of ethical issues with which the field should be concerned, and suggests the field should proactively plan for program reductions. (MSE)
