AnswerIt varies, but chances are the starting salary will be lower than most other people graduating with Master's degrees. Like most things, it depends on how hard you want to work at it. It is quite possible to earn 100K+ but as one of my instructors told me once, "Don't expect to buy you wife many fur coats." AnswerThe median expected salary for a typical Social Worker (BSW) in the United States is $41,187.As a graduate of an MSW program in 2003, I made $16/hr ($33280/yr). I made a decision to stay in the medical/health-care field, as this industry tends to pay better than many others, like child welfare. Now, in 2008, I make $29.50/hr ($61360). Presently, I earn this at one job, as a manager in a hospice program. I've made this much (or more) the past two years, however, it required some creativity- a full time job as a clinician, plus some sideline work doing family therapy on a contract basis, or picking up 'on-call' shifts at a local hospital.
The answer varies greatly from state to state and where you are working. I had been living outside of Pittsburgh and made approx. $30,000 after graduating with my MSW. I think this is fairly typical of that area.
I now live in Los Angeles and work for a federal government agency that pays over $60,000 for new MSW's.
Typically, MSW's make the most working in hospitals or schools and the least working for community social service agencies.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics the estimatedmean annual wage for social worker as of May 2008 is, $48,180. This would amount to $23.16 per hour. Medianannual wages of child, family, and school social workers were $39,530 in May 2008. The middle 50 percent earned between $31,040 and $52,080. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $25,870, and the top 10 percent earned more than $66,430.
That depends on the place you are working at. But the most a social worker has ever made is $90,000, or less.

You cannot become a social worker with just an associate's degree. I'm sorry, but it is the truth. It's smart to get a Masters. I got mine and would suggest it, it's a great career:)
