Once you have activated your CWRU Applicant Portal, you will be able to access the CWRU QuesBbridge Supplement. This short form will ask you questions specific to your CWRU application, including your intended CWRU major and your test optional status.

Transcripts uploaded to the QuestBridge application are accepted as official, or your high school counselor can send transcripts directly to the Admissions Office

Case Western Reserve University is a test optional institution. Students will have the ability to indicate whether they would like CWRU to consider their standardized test scores when completing the CWRU Questbridge Supplement.

If you choose to apply with standardized test scores:

Self-reported scores are accepted for students applying through the Questbridge National College Match. Official SAT or ACT score reports will be required for admitted students prior to enrollment at CWRU.

Please select "Early Action" as your admission application type. 

If your parents are divorced or separated:

• Both of your biological/adoptive parent(s) will complete their own CSS Profile with different log-in credentials. It is highly recommended that the student and custodial parent start the CSS Profile first, as the non-custodial cannot submit information until the student selects a school that requires the submission of non-custodial parent information.
• Your non-custodial parent must submit the online Non-Custodial Profile after creating a separate College Board account.

Please complete the FAFSA as soon as it is available and submit it directly to CWRU.

US Citizens and Eligible Noncitizens only.

Finalists who ranked CWRU for the Match and did not match to a binding college partner may be considered for Early Decision or Early Decision 2. Note that ED and ED2 are binding admission processes. Applicants must complete the Early Decision Agreement, which will be provided within your CWRU applicant portal. You are encouraged to review CWRU’s Early Decision policy and contact us by email with any questions.

All Finalists who ranked CWRU for the Match but did not match to a binding college will automatically have their applications moved into the Regular Decision process. Please submit the midyear report when available and any relevant updates.

If you no longer wish to be considered, you must withdraw your application through the applicant portal or by contacting CWRU admission by email.
