Case Western Academic Calendar 2023-2024 || Important Dates
Case Western Academic Calendar – See the official Case Western Reserve University academic calendar showing important dates, academic events, and deadlines.
Case Western Reserve University (also known as Case Western or CWRU) is a private research university in Cleveland, Ohio. Founded through the federation of the Case Institute of Technology and Western Reserve University in 1967. The two institutions had neighbored each other in Cleveland beginning in the late 19th century.
The formula used to create the Academic Calendar each year is approved by both the Faculty Senate and the Board of Trustees. While the formula sets basic guidelines, it does not comprehensively dictate dates for all schools, programs, courses, and teaching formats at the university. Rather, it provides a framework that is then adapted to set the specific dates that make up each year’s calendar.
This post will show you the important dates to look out for in the 2023-2024 academic calendar, so you don’t have to miss anything important. Continue reading to learn more about the dates.
