A Pathway for Native American Students to Access a Mainstream University for Social Work Education
Overview & Synopsis
Native American students, faculty members, and administrators of a tribal college were interviewed by two investigators from a mainstream midwestern university in this qualitative study. The study examines the participants' perspectives on continuing their education and identifying a pathway for Native American students who received their associate degrees in addiction studies or human services from the tribal college to complete their social work education at a mainstream university. Three themes emerged from the data supporting the formation of a combined cohort of Native American and non-Native American students working together as a pathway for Native Americans to attend a mainstream university for a degree in social work education.
