Overview of the Provost Scholars
The Provost Scholars Program is a partnership between Case Western Reserve University (CWRU), East Cleveland City Schools, Ginn Academy, and the Cleveland School of the Arts. The program matches high school students (Provost Scholars) with CWRU faculty and staff mentors as well as undergraduate and graduate student tutors to support and improve academic and career outcomes for the Provost Scholars. The program also provides weekly University Intensive Seminars, field trips, large-scale research projects, summer programming, and family support through the monthly Parents' College at Case.
