Case Western Reserve University is one of the nation’s leading independent research universities, with programs that encompass the arts and sciences, engineering, the health sciences, law, management, and social work.

Although its origins date to 1826, the University in its present form is the result of the 1967 federation of Case Institute of Technology and Western Reserve University. The two institutions had shared adjacent campuses since the late nineteenth century, and were involved in cooperative efforts for many years. Western Reserve College was founded in 1826 in Hudson, Ohio, a town 26 miles southeast of Cleveland. The College took its name from that of the region, which at the time of the American Revolution, was known as the Western Reserve of Connecticut. In 1882, renamed Western Reserve University and boasting a medical school in addition to its undergraduate programs, the institution moved to the Cleveland site that later became known as University Circle. There it joined the Case School of Applied Science, founded in 1880 through the bequest of Leonard Case, Jr., a leading citizen of Cleveland. The name Case Institute of Technology was adopted in 1947 to reflect the institution’s growing stature in the sciences and engineering.

The academic programs of the University are administered through the College of Arts and Sciences and seven professional schools, including applied social sciences, dentistry, engineering, law, management, medicine, and nursing, with coordination provided by the President and the Provost. The major academic divisions of the University are described below, along with a listing of their principal offerings. Note that several of these units cooperate to offer programs leading to joint degrees.

The College of Arts and Sciences (est. 1992, but tracing its origins to1826) offers courses of study leading to B.A. and B.S. degrees in a full range of disciplines in the humanities, arts, social sciences, and natural sciences. Departmental faculty also conduct research and offer instruction leading to master’s and doctoral degrees in these fields. The College is also the academic home for some undergraduates pursuing major fields of concentration in disciplines included in the faculties of Management and Medicine.

The Case School of Engineering (est. 1992, but tracing its origins to 1880) offers curricula leading to the B.S. degree in a wide range of engineering disciplines. Departmental faculty also offer advanced instruction leading to the M.S. and the Ph.D. in these fields, conduct a substantial body of research, and maintain close ties to industry as well. The School also offers a practice-oriented degree, the Master of Engineering, tailored for employed engineers seeking to advance their knowledge. The Institute for the Integration of Management and Engineering, a joint venture of the Case School of Engineering and the Weatherhead School of Management, offers the Master of Engineering and Management degree.

The School of Graduate Studies (est. 1892) confers M.A., M.S., M.F.A., M.P.H., and Ph.D. degrees upon students who have completed advanced study in the arts and sciences and various professional fields. The School is an administrative unit, working closely with the deans and faculty in the University’s colleges and professional schools, who provide instruction and mentoring for graduate students.

The Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences (est. 1916) offers curricula leading to the M.S.S.A. (Master of Science in Social Administration) degree in social work, and to the Ph.D. degree in social welfare. In collaboration with the schools of law and management, the School administers the Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations. The Mandel School also operates a continuing education program for social-work practitioners in the community. Through the Mandel Center, the Mandel School and the School of Management offer a joint program leading to the degree of Master of Nonprofit Organizations (M.N.O.).

The School of Dentistry (est. 1892) offers a curriculum leading to the D.D.S. degree, and postdoctoral training in several dental specialties leading to the M.S.D. degree. In conjunction with its curriculum, the School also operates a dental clinic on campus where students provide faculty-supervised dental service to area residents.

The School of Law (est. 1892) offers a broad range of courses leading to the J.D. degree. The School also offers graduate instruction leading to the LL.M. in taxation and in U.S. legal studies. As part of its curriculum, the School operates a legal clinic in which law students, under faculty supervision, provide services to clients from the community. The School administers the Law-Medicine Center, the Canada-United States Law Institute, the Frederick K. Cox International Law Center, and a seminar for federal judges sponsored by the Federal Judicial Center, and participates in the Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations.

The Weatherhead School of Management (est. 1967) offers curricula leading to the B.S., M.S., M.Acc., M.B.A., E.D.M. (Executive Doctor of Management), and Ph.D. degrees in management, accounting, organizational behavior, operations research, and other areas of business administration. Members of the School’s faculty also provide instruction in economics for undergraduate students enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences. The School offers a wide range of educational programs for professional managers and participates in the Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations and the Institute for the Integration of Management and Engineering.

The School of Medicine (est. 1843) offers a curriculum leading to the M.D. degree. This curriculum, developed at the School and emulated widely throughout the world, features an interdisciplinary approach to organ systems. The School’s pre-clinical departments offer instruction leading to the M.S., Ph.D., and M.D.-Ph.D. degrees in the biomedical sciences. Faculty in the School are extensively involved in biomedical research. Full-time faculty in the School’s clinical disciplines also have a major commitment to patient care and close supervision of medical students’ involvement in patient services in a network of affiliated hospitals and clinics.

The Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing (est. 1923) offers curricula leading to professional degrees in nursing: the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.S.N.) degree, with an emphasis on acute care, and the Doctor of Nursing (N.D.) degree, a professional degree for students who already have baccalaureates in the liberal arts or sciences. The School also offers instruction leading to the M.S.N. degree in several nursing specialties and to the Ph.D. in nursing. The School’s faculty members maintain an active research program.

From a settlement that began nearly two centuries ago on the banks of the Cuyahoga River, Cleveland has grown into a metropolis of more than 2 million people. The heritage of this Great Lakes port includes industrial achievement as well as cultural and scientific advances. The Cleveland area is headquarters for many of the nation’s major corporations. The city is also a major banking center; the Fourth District Federal Reserve Bank, one of 12 in the nation, is located here.

Health care is another thriving Cleveland industry. Dozens of hospitals and medical centers are concentrated in the area. University Hospitals of Cleveland, the Cleveland Clinic, the MetroHealth Medical Center, and others are internationally recognized for outstanding patient care and contributions to medical research.

Greater Cleveland is dotted with shopping malls, theaters, and opportunities for sports and amusement. The latter include Lake Erie; the 17,000-acre Metropark system; professional teams in baseball, football, basketball, soccer, and hockey; and facilities for softball, skiing, hiking, cycling, picnics, and other activities. More than 60 ethnic groups are represented in Cleveland; summer festivals continue traditions brought to the region from throughout the world.

Case Western Reserve University is located in University Circle, a 550-acre, park-like concentration of more than 40 cultural, medical, educational, religious, and social service institutions located at the eastern edge of the city. In addition to the University, which is the largest institution in University Circle, the community includes Severance Hall, home of the world-famous Cleveland Orchestra; the Cleveland Museum of Art, housing one of the nation’s finest collections; the Cleveland Institute of Music; the Cleveland Institute of Art; University Hospitals of Cleveland; the Western Reserve Historical Society; the Cleveland Botanical Garden; the Cleveland Museum of Natural History; and many others. All are within walking distance of the University.

University Circle attracts visitors from throughout the region to its concerts, theater performances, athletic events, art shows, public lectures, exhibits, and restaurants. Housing, shopping, and recreational facilities are all located in the area.

The purpose of UCITE is to support and encourage change and innovation in teaching. It does this through a combination of informal seminars and workshops on topics in education and learning (about 50 per year) led by UCITE personnel and campus faculty; special programs with invited outside speakers of renown and expertise; and individualized services (such as learning to use the web, class videotaping, class visitation, mentoring, and consultation) to faculty who request them. UCITE also serves as a research, planning and implementation resource for the many education-related initiatives undertaken on campus.

UCITE also conducts programs for new faculty and these serve an important function in the faculty member’s development and socialization to the university culture, as well as to the growth of their teaching skills.

UCITE administers grants programs that are designed to encourage faculty members to develop and experiment with their teaching and education activities. The grants are funded in two different ways. The Glennan Fellows Program provides five stipends of $6,500 annually from the income of an endowment provided by the Glennan family. Selected Fellows must be tenure-track but untenured faculty members who exhibit outstanding talent as both teachers and scholars. Glennan fellows are nominated by their peers and awards are made on the basis of proposals which they submit following nominations. It is a significant honor to serve as a Glennan Fellow, and these junior faculty become recognized as leaders and role models for other junior faculty.

Other grants programs are not endowed but instead are supported by annual donations. For example, the family of Walter Nord has given $50,000 for each of the past five years for innovative courses, and this has provided support for five grants annually under that name. Additional support in the form of gifts and donations by alumni and friends is continually being sought. These funds are used to provide additional teaching grants to University faculty members.

UCITE is administered by a director who is a senior faculty member, and an associate director. The center has a full-time secretary.

Information Services is the division of the University that is responsible for information technology. It is composed of several units that provide a wide variety of technology-related services, including customer service and satisfaction, administrative and desktop applications, network and infrastructure services, including telephone services and streaming video, instructional technology and academic computing, and University archives.

A free shuttle bus system that runs on a continual schedule throughout the week serves the 550-acre University Circle area. In the evenings, a loop bus runs every 20 minutes over a specific campus route. Bus schedules are available in the Access Services Office, Thwing, and several other buildings. In addition, Regional Transit Authority bus routes run through the heart of University Circle, linking the campus with the greater community. Rapid Transit trains run directly from the campus to Cleveland Hopkins International Airport.

All parking for Case Western Reserve University and University Hospitals is administered by University Circle, Inc. (UCI), which has also undertaken a program of increasing the space available for parking.

The privilege of parking on campus is granted first to students who must drive cars to reach the campus and to students who require cars because of physical disability or the special needs of their curricula. Parking privileges are then granted, as space permits, to other students. Students living in residence halls and fraternities must obtain parking permits if they maintain cars while in residence. Resident student parking is granted on a confirmed housing assignment, class seniority basis. Parking on campus is not allowed except by permit and then only in the areas for which the permit is valid.

Students may apply for fall parking permits in the previous spring. To the extent that space is available, full-time students who meet the above qualifications are eligible to purchase parking permits. Part-time students attending classes for fewer than 12 credit hours (undergraduate) or 9 credit hours (graduate) are eligible to purchase permits on the same basis as above at a lower cost. Graduate students registered for 651 or 701 courses must purchase full-time permits. Current proof of part-time registration is required when a request for a part-time parking permit is made. Summer session permits are also available.

Questions about the cost of permits may be directed on or after May 1 to Access Services, Crawford Hall, 10900 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44106-7084 (216-368-2724).

Maps detailing the complete parking inventory of UCI will be issued with each permit.

All students registered at the University must abide by the parking rules of University Circle, Inc. (UCI). Complete copies of the rules are available at the University Circle Parking Department and at Access Services.

Violators are subject to fines, and, if fines are not paid, to towing. A person charged with a violation has the opportunity for a first written appeal to the University Circle Parking Department. In the event of an unsuccessful first written appeal, the alleged violator has the opportunity of reappealing in person, with counsel if desired, before the UCI Parking Appeals Committee. Failure to pay a fine will ultimately result in the withholding of transcripts.

Admission to Case Western Reserve University is competitive. All applicants are evaluated on the basis of high school performance, including class rank, level of courses completed, grades, recommendations, and personal accomplishments. Scores from the Scholastic Aptitude Test or the American College Test are also an important consideration. Students are encouraged, but not required, to take three of the College Board SAT II Subject Tests. An admission interview is highly recommended. Students who have been out of high school several years may wish to consult the Office of Undergraduate Admission about entrance requirements.

Application Dates and Notification of Admission
The University operates on a two-semester calendar and has an abbreviated summer session. Students seeking to enroll in the fall may use any one of three application plans. Those for whom Case Western Reserve University is a clear first choice may apply for Early Decision by meeting a January 1 application deadline. They will be notified of the Admission Committee’s decision within three weeks of a completed application, and if admitted, will be required to withdraw all applications from other colleges and universities and commit themselves to enroll at Case Western Reserve within three weeks of the admission decision. Students who wish to be considered for the University’s Pre-Professional Scholars Program (PPSP) must submit their applications by December 15. They will be notified of the University’s decision on their admission in early March and PPSP results by April 15. The regular application deadline is February 1. Students meeting this deadline will be notified of their admission by April 1 and will be expected to indicate whether or not they will accept the University’s offer by May 1.

Applicants for the spring semester or summer session should have all admission credentials on file six weeks before the beginning of the term. Applicants for either term should realize that many programs require that courses be taken in a sequence. Because not all courses are offered every semester, the number available to freshmen entering in the spring or summer may be limited.

Offers of admission are contingent upon successful completion of secondary school work and graduation. Admitted students should arrange to have final semester grades sent to the Office of Undergraduate Admission.

All entering freshmen are expected to have completed 16 units of full-credit academic work in secondary school, including four years of English, three years of mathematics, and one year of laboratory science. Students expressing interest in some fields should present additional courses as part of their 16 units, since those courses provide appropriate background for college-level work in the area of their choice. A fourth year of mathematics is required of students planning to concentrate in mathematics, science, or engineering. Students planning to major in science or math or to pursue pre-medical studies must have at least two years of laboratory science, including chemistry, and, in some cases, courses in physics. Engineering applicants should have one year of chemistry and one year of physics. All applicants are encouraged to have completed two to four years of foreign language study.

Applicants must submit scores from either the American College Testing Program or the SAT I of the College Board. It is recommended that these tests be taken no later than December of the senior year.

For students planning to pursue degrees in engineering and science, the score in the mathematical part of the ACT or SAT I is of particular importance. The curriculum in science and mathematics is based on a student’s capacity to analyze and reason by means of mathematical logic. The University strongly recommends that applicants for admission take three College Board SAT II tests by December of their senior year. Results of the tests aid in the admission decision and in placement in freshman courses. Students interested in science or engineering should take subject tests in English Composition, Mathematics Level I or II, Chemistry and/or Physics. Others should take English Composition and two other tests of their choice. Applicants for the Pre-Professional Scholars Program must submit either the SAT I and three SAT II test scores, including English Composition, or the ACT.

An interview is recommended as part of the admission process, but it is not required. Prospective students should schedule an interview appointment in advance. Parents are welcome. Guided tours of the campus and visits to classes are also arranged upon request. The Office of Undergraduate Admission is open for interviews by appointment from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and for group information sessions from noon to 3 p.m. on selected Saturdays during the school year. The office is closed on holidays. Students may arrange appointments by writing, calling, or e-mail:

Students admitted under the Early Decision plan are required to withdraw applications from other colleges and universities and accept Case Western Reserve’s offer within three weeks of admission.

Note: Applicants who have been offered admission by a college or university that requires a response before May 1 should contact that college or university to ask for an immediate extension of its deadline until all the colleges applied to have responded. They should also contact the Office of Undergraduate Admission to inform the Admission Committee of the problem.

Case Western Reserve University subscribes to the National Association of College Admission Counselors’ Statement of Principles of Good Practice.

Enrollment Deposit
Students who accept the offer of admission must submit a non-refundable enrollment deposit of $200.00 to reserve a place in the entering class. If a student does not respond to the offer of admission by May 1 or does not make the appropriate deposit, the Office of Undergraduate Admission may release the student’s place to another applicant.

Advanced Placement and Proficiency Examinations
Case Western Reserve University grants degree credit and placement in advanced courses on the basis of the College Board Advanced Placement Examinations and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma or the International Baccalaureate higher level examinations. The determination of credit and placement is made by the appropriate academic departments. An Advanced Placement score of 4 or higher or an IB higher level examination score of 5, 6, or 7 may receive favorable consideration. Students who are enrolled in high schools that do not offer Advanced Placement courses but who wish to take the examinations should contact their high school counselors for registration information. It is the student’s responsibility to have Advanced Placement scores sent to the Office of Undergraduate Admission. Students may also receive college credit on the basis of proficiency examinations administered by individual departments.

Transfer Students
Transfer applicants (any student who has enrolled in a college or university after graduation from high school is considered a transfer student) are considered for admission for the fall semester, spring semester, or summer session. In order to provide adequate time for evaluation, applications should be completed as early as possible and not later than six weeks before the beginning of each semester. The degree requirements for all students are established by the undergraduate colleges. For specific requirements for transfer students, please see the appropriate section under "Undergraduate Studies." It is generally expected that the final two academic years will be taken in residence at the University.

Each transfer applicant is asked to submit:

In order to evaluate transfer credit, the Office of Undergraduate Admission must receive a complete official transcript of all work taken and course descriptions.

Binary (3-2) Program
In cooperation with a number of liberal arts colleges, Case Western Reserve offers the Binary (3-2) Program in engineering, in which students complete three years of study in the liberal arts college and two years in engineering at the Case School of Engineering and receive degrees from both colleges. For further details, consult the program description found under "Undergraduate Studies."

Special Admission Programs
Students seeking admission to one of the University’s joint programs with the Cleveland Institute of Art or the Cleveland Institute of Music should consult the appropriate program descriptions elsewhere in this Bulletin. For information regarding admission as a transient student or adult non-degree student, admission to the Pre-Professional Scholars Program and Six-Year Dental Program, admission to the PreCollege Scholars Program, or admission to the Minority Engineers Industrial Opportunity Program, consult the appropriate section of this bulletin.

(Summer, Fall, and Spring)
Students register at the time indicated on the "Schedule of Classes" or as indicated by individual graduate/professional school registrars. Registration for fall begins in April and continues through the beginning of classes in August; registration for spring begins in November and continues through the beginning of classes in January. Only those students who have no outstanding financial obligations to the University are eligible to register. The University Controller bills those who register early for the next semester, with payment due by the specified deadline before the start of the next semester. At registration just prior to the beginning of classes, students must have paid all previous charges and be able to pay, or have financial aid equal to one half of that semester’s tuition and fees. Each student must have an ID number on record in the student information system. The social security number is used as the student ID number, and it appears on all documents and records. Students from other countries who do not have social security numbers are issued student ID numbers.

The "Schedule of Classes" is published once per semester and an electronic version is updated routinely to indicate changes and is available through the University Registrar’s website at: http://www.cwru.edu/provost/registrar/registrar.html. The University Registrar’s website includes the academic calendar, the dates for late registration and drop/add, and a complete listing of courses offered. Students are encouraged to use the on-line registration system (SOLAR) if available through their school. Alternatively, students may obtain course selection forms and instructions in their deans’ or registrars’ offices. If not using SOLAR, completed schedule forms are to be signed by the student’s advisor and/or dean, before the student goes to the registrar’s office. No zero credit only registrations (e.g. zero credit physical education courses) are allowed unless approved as part of ongoing degree programs. During any semester, students may not register in more than one school or college of the University.

All courses at the University, except courses in the Medical School, Law School, School of Dentistry, and School of Nursing, are numbered according to the following plan

Roman numerals (I, II, etc.) after course titles indicate segments of a multi-course sequence. Arabic numerals in parentheses after course titles indicate the semester credit hours for each course.

The Office of the Veterans’ Coordinator, housed in the Office of the University Registrar, 110 Yost Hall, administers the regulations governing the educational benefits and opportunities open to veterans under various federal laws. The office maintains close contact with the Veterans Administration and is the only office authorized to verify veterans’ attendance. For information call

The following grading system is used at Case Western Reserve University:

The Freshman Year: For the first two semesters of full-time enrollment students who are beginning their college studies will earn credit and grades only for those courses completed with a grade of D or higher. Any courses for which a grade of F, W or NP is assigned will not be included in the computation of the grade point average and will not be posted on the official transcript. This grading policy is not applicable to part-time or transfer students and does not apply to the summer session.

The responsibility for assigning grades rests exclusively with the instructor of a course or section, who must announce the general method of grading to his/her class at the beginning of the course. Grades in all courses are reported to the University Registrar at the end of each semester for all students and at midterm for undergraduates (midterm grades are not considered part of the student’s permanent academic record). Changes to student grades must be reported on grade change cards and have all required signatures.

I (Incomplete)
The grade of I is assigned at the discretion of an instructor provided that

An Incomplete grade may not be assigned if a student is absent from a final examination, unless the dean has authorized the absence. Unauthorized absence from a final examination will result in a failing grade. When the student completes the work, the Incomplete is changed to an A, B, C, D, P, F, or NP. (Note: not all schools award all of these grades, see first paragraph of "Grading System" above.)

For undergraduate students: All work for the Incomplete grade must be made up, and the change of grade recorded in the Office of the University Registrar, by the date specified by the instructor, but no later than the 11th week of the session following the one in which the Incomplete grade was received. In certain cases, (such as students on probation or graduating students) the dean may establish an earlier date for completion of courses with Incomplete grades. When a student fails to submit the work required for removing the Incomplete by the date established, the instructor shall transmit to the Registrar a final grade that assumes a failing performance for the missing work. In the absence of the assignment of a grade by the instructor the Registrar will convert the I to F when the deadline for making up Incomplete grades from a previous semester has passed. Failure to meet this deadline for removing the Incomplete will result in a failing grade. An instructor may elect to give the grade of F or NP if the Incomplete is not removed within the specified time limit. For students in the graduate and professional schools: In order to receive credit for a course marked incomplete the student must complete the work by the date specified by the instructor, and in no event later than the end of the next regular semester (fall or spring). If the student fails to remove the Incomplete within the specified time, he or she forfeits the privilege of completing the course for credit and the grade becomes a permanent incomplete unless the instructor elects to give a grade of F.

S (Satisfactory)
The grade of S given graduate students in the School of Graduate Studies indicates satisfactory progress in evaluating exclusively thesis and dissertation research. The grade S is not counted in determining quality averages. The alternative to a grade of S is U (Unsatisfactory). The grade of I (Incomplete) may not be used in evaluating thesis and dissertation research. In other graduate/professional schools, the grade of S may indicate passing performance in designated courses and advanced seminars.

R (Conditional)
The grade of R is used for work, such as undergraduate thesis and project laboratories, that extends more than one semester. The R grade will be replaced by the letter grade finally reported for the completed work.

AD (Audit) and NG (Unsuccessful Audit)
The grade of AD (audit) will be given when a student has officially registered to audit a course and has satisfied the requirements specified by the instructor for this grade. The grade of NG (unsuccessful audit, graduate and professional schools only) will be given when a student has officially registered to audit a course and has not satisfied the requirements specified by the instructor for this grade.

Undergraduate Students
A student may audit a course with the dean’s or advisor’s approval and the consent of the instructor of the course. An auditor receives no credit for the course.

Registration in a course cannot be changed from audit to credit or the reverse after the end of the drop/add period. At the beginning of the course, the student and instructor should reach agreement regarding the requirements to be met for a grade of AD. The grade of AD is entered on the student’s transcript if approved by the instructor of the course. If the instructor does not approve the grade AD, the enrollment is not posted on the transcript. A student may take for credit a course he or she audited in an earlier semester.

Graduate/Professional Students
Dental students: Courses towards degree programs in the dental school may not be audited.

The following statements apply to the schools of Graduate Studies and Management: The instructor may designate that the student has not completed all requirements for auditing the course and that NG (Unsuccessful Audit) be recorded on the student’s transcript. A course once audited may not be repeated for credit, nor may any course for which credit has been given be repeated for credit toward degree requirements. Students will be permitted to change their registration in a course from credit to audit (AD), or the reverse, with written consent of their advisor and the instructor only if the change is officially made on or before the date specified in the academic calendar for the given term.

Other graduate and professional schools: Please refer to individual school sections of this publication, or to individual school student handbooks.

W (Partial Withdrawal)
The grade of W will be given if a student officially withdraws from a course on or before the date specified in the academic calendar for the given term. This procedure necessitates completion of a form that must be signed by the dean and/or faculty advisor and submitted to the University Registrar. After this date, the grade as determined by the instructor will be posted.

WD (Complete Withdrawal)
The grade WD is assigned by the University Registrar for complete withdrawal from all course work for the semester. All withdrawal forms are to be submitted to the University Registrar prior to the last day of class.

Grade-Point Averages
Grade-point averages are calculated by multiplying the number equivalent of the letter grade by the number of credit hours for the course. The semester grade-point average is computed by dividing the total number of grade points earned at the University during a given semester by the sum of the credit hours for all courses in which the student received letter grades of A, B, C, D, or F taken at the University during that same semester. (Not all of these grades are given by all schools.)

For the purpose of semester grade calculations, grade points earned when a grade of Incomplete is replaced by the appropriate course grade are credited to the semester in which the incomplete grade was received, but status action (separation, probation, or restoration to good standing) taken at the end of that semester is not affected unless the grade change occurs by the first day of classes of the following semester. Qualification for honors is based on the same terms.

For students on probation, except those enrolled at the Weatherhead School of Management, grade points earned in a summer session are credited to the preceding spring semester, with a corresponding re-evaluation of probationary status. For Weatherhead students, probation is in effect for the next semester in which the student registers for classes. The cumulative grade-point average is computed by dividing the total grade points earned at the University by the sum of the credit hours for all courses included in the grade-point calculation.

Pass-No Pass
See specific colleges and schools for information about courses that may be taken on a pass-no pass basis and similar options.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) contains several provisions that are important to students. First, the University may not release personally identifiable student records to a third party, with certain specific exceptions, unless the third party has requested the information in writing and the student has consented, again in writing, to its release. The University may release directory information about a student, however, unless the student submits a written request that any or all such information not be released. Second, a student may request, in writing, an opportunity to inspect and review the student’s official files and records maintained by the University and may, if appropriate, challenge the accuracy of those records. The University is permitted a reasonable time, not to exceed 45 days, to respond to such a request. Third, a student may file with the Family Policy and Regulations Office of the U.S. Department of Education a complaint concerning what he or she believes to be the University’s failure to comply with FERPA. Finally, a student may obtain from the Office of the Provost a copy of the policy which the University has adopted to meet the requirements of FERPA. The information below is presented in compliance with the provisions of FERPA, which require the University to notify students annually of their rights and the University’s policies and procedures. Specific procedures may vary slightly among the schools and colleges of the University, and each student is encouraged to inquire at his or her own dean’s office if any question arises.

Deans’ Offices
The following records are generally maintained for each student in the office of his or her dean in order to facilitate and document the student’s academic work. Access to these records is normally limited to the staff of the dean’s office and to other academic and administrative officers of the University who are judged to have legitimate and appropriate reasons for access.

Financial Aid Offices
The following records are maintained for students in order to administer the University’s programs of financial assistance. For undergraduate, graduate, and professional students, these records are maintained in the University Office of Financial Aid; for the School of Medicine, records are maintained in the office of the dean. Access to these files is normally limited to authorized personnel, to other academic and administrative officers of the University judged to have legitimate and appropriate reasons for access, and to other individuals who must review a student’s records when the student applies for externally funded financial assistance. Items marked with an asterisk are not among those to which the student may have access under the provisions of FERPA

Registrar’s Office
The University Registrar’s Office files contain current schedules and grade reports. In addition, the Registrar’s Office maintains the complete historical permanent record of courses and grades on microfilm and on paper for all students who have attended the University. The registrar regularly provides the deans’ offices with copies of permanent student records for student files, advisors, and students.

Departmental Files
An academic department may maintain a semipermanent file for a student whose course of study is under the direction of members of that department. The student should check with the chairperson of his or her department with respect to any such file.

Access to Files
A student may request, in writing, an opportunity to review the contents of the student’s educational file. Certain materials are excluded from review as specified in FERPA. Among these are:

The office to which the request is made will arrange an appointment within a reasonable period of time (not to exceed 45 days) for the student to review the file in the presence of a member of the office staff.

If, during the course of this review, the student questions the accuracy of a record contained in the file, the staff member will attempt to resolve the problem informally. Should this attempt at resolution be unsuccessful, a formal hearing will be set up and a decision made by a University official or other party chosen by the University who does not have a direct interest in the outcome of the hearing. At this hearing, the student will be given a full and fair opportunity to present evidence relevant to the issue under consideration, and the decision will be given in writing within a reasonable period of time after the hearing.

If, as a result of the hearing, the University decides that the information is inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the privacy or other rights of the student, it will amend the educational records of the student accordingly and so inform the student in writing. If, as a result of the hearing, the University decides that the information is not inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the privacy or other rights of the student, it will inform the student of the right to place in the student’s educational records a statement commenting on the information in the records or setting forth any reasons for disagreeing with the University’s decision.

The purpose of this provision of FERPA is to "insure that records are not inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the privacy or other rights of students, and to provide an opportunity for the correction or deletion of any such inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise inappropriate data contained therein and to insert into such records a written explanation . . . respecting the content of such records." This provision of the act was not intended, in the words of the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare, "to overturn established standards and procedures for the challenge of substantive decisions made by the institution," nor "to permit a parent or student to contest the grade given the student’s performance in a course."

The student may request copies of those records to which he or she has access under the terms of FERPA. The student will be charged a nominal fee per page for these copies.

In general, the University will not release personally identifiable student record information to a third party unless the information has been specifically requested in writing and the student has consented to its release in writing. At the student’s request and expense, the University will furnish a copy of the information whose release has been requested. FERPA provides for certain exceptions to the requirement of prior student consent for the release of student record information. These include the release of information:

Under the terms listed above, personal information will be released from a student’s file to a third party only on the condition that the third party will not share the information with any other party without the written consent of the student except as otherwise prohibited by law. Case Western Reserve University will maintain a record of request for access to and disclosure of personally identifiable information.

For the convenience of faculty and fellow students, FERPA provides for a category known as directory information which may be released without requesting the student’s or parent’s specific prior consent. Rather, the act requires that students be notified annually of the types of information included in this category and be given an appropriate period in which to express, in writing, any preference that such information about themselves not be released. For this purpose, directory information is defined to include

Any student who would prefer that the University not release such information about himself or herself should so notify the Office of the University Registrar, in writing, prior to the first week of classes in the fall semester. The student should also inform the Office of News Services, Adelbert Hall (368-4440), in writing, as it is the responsibility of that office to provide the student’s hometown newspapers with news stories. Students entering the University at midyear may submit such notice during the first week of classes of the spring semester.

A transcript of grades will be released only upon written request of the student, either in person or by mail. A fee is charged for each transcript copy. Transcripts will not be issued to, or on behalf of, students who have not discharged all delinquent obligations to the University.

It is the policy of Case Western Reserve University to provide a positive, discrimination-free educational and working environment. Sexual harassment is unacceptable conduct which will not be tolerated. All members of the University community share responsibility for avoiding, discouraging, and reporting any form of sexual harassment.

Members of the University community found in violation of this policy may be disciplined, up to and including being discharged for cause or being expelled from the University. Retaliation against persons raising concerns about sexual harassment is prohibited and will constitute separate grounds for disciplinary action, up to and including discharge or expulsion from the University.

This policy and the accompanying procedures shall serve as the only internal University forum of resolution and appeal of sexual harassment complaints."

The University has passed and disseminated to all parties on this campus–students, faculty and staff–a detailed statement titled Policies and Procedures Regarding Sexual Harassment and Sexual Assault. Copies are available in the Provost’s Office, all the deans’ offices and at many of the University offices throughout the campus. Consultation and advice are available in the offices of the Provost, Affirmative Action, and Student Affairs. See the section, "Student Affairs," for policies and procedures regarding sexual assault.

The Student Right to Know and Campus Security Act requires that universities throughout the country produce statistics and/or information on the following subjects: 1) retention and graduation rates; 2) financial assistance available to students and requirements and restrictions imposed on title IV aid; 3) crime statistics on campus; 4) athletic program participation rates and financial support; and 5) other institutional information including: the cost of attendance; accreditation and academic program data; facilities and services available to disabled students; and withdrawal and refund policies.

Data on retention and graduation rates is available in the Office of the Provost in Adelbert Hall (216-368-4388) and is posted on the Registrar’s website at: http://www.cwru.edu/provost/registrar/gradrate.html. Information on financial assistance, including descriptions of application procedures and forms, may be obtained from the Office of University Financial Aid, Yost Hall, (216-368-4530). Information concerning athletic program participation and financial support may be obtained from The Physical Education and Athletics Department, Veale Center, (216-368-2867). Other institutional information, such as that listed in number 5, above, may be obtained from the Office of the Office of the Provost and in the various undergraduate, graduate and professional schools’ registrars’ offices.

Case Western Reserve University’s annual security report includes statistics for the previous three years concerning reported crimes that occurred on campus; in certain off-campus buildings owned or controlled by the University; and on public property within, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus. The report also includes institutional policies concerning alcohol and drug use, crime prevention, the reporting of crimes, sexual assault and other matters. You can obtain a copy of this report by contacting the Protective Services Office at 216-368-2908, or by accessing the following website:
