Admission process
Application to Case is made through Case's Office of Undergraduate Admission. The application process can be reviewed on-line through the Undergraduate Admissions home page, http://admission.case.edu/. Acceptance into the program and Case shall be at the sole discretion of Case and the student's application does not guarantee acceptance.
Acceptance to the Program prior to the end of a student's third year at Fisk shall be conditional, with formal admission contingent upon the student's final grade point average and academic requirements at the end of the third year meeting the Program requirements. Students must provide Case with an official transcript, as soon as it becomes available, prior to a final decision being made at Case. Final acceptance into the Program is contingent upon Case's issuance of a written statement confirming said acceptance.
After Admission
Each student shall be responsible for paying the tuition and fees to the institution in which he or she is enrolled during the time enrolled and for complying with all the policies and procedures of such institution. Students in the Dual Degree Program may apply and qualify for financial aid at https://case.edu/financialaid/.
NOTE: It is up to the student to speak with his/her advisors at both schools to schedule the required courses in five years.
This will be one of the student’s greatest concerns since both schools offer some of the upper level courses only once a year.
