This is the home of the Thrive and FYI Newsletters.
The Thrive newsletter is sent to second-, third- and fourth-year undergraduate students. We’ll be in touch with you weekly to keep you in-the-know about important deadlines, fun events and other must-have info.
The First-Year Information or, as we like to call it, FYI, will be your guide to stay on top of important information to help with your transition to our community. We’ll update you each week with information and deadlines you’ll need to know as you embark on your first year at Case Western Reserve. Parents and guardians: you’ll be copied, too, so you’ll know what’s happening on campus throughout your student’s first year.
Keep an eye on your inbox each Thursday evening to catch the latest edition.
