Most social workers have a bachelor's degree in social work (BSW). Some, but not many have a degree in a related field. Thus, you can start with an associate degree, but you will have to pursue a bachelors degree afterward. The career counselor at the college you attend can advise you of the best approach at the associates level so that you have a smooth transfer to the four year college or university.
