The Dean of Students Office is central to the educational mission of Case Western Reserve University, seeking to retain students and providing them an environment conducive to academic success. In an effort to respond to the needs of students and the campus community, the Division of Student Affairs has established case management, Behavioral Intervention Team (BIT) and CARE Management. Case Managers (non-clinical), BIT and CARE Management are housed in the Dean of Students Office and consist of a team of professionals from several units. This presentation will give a brief overview of these student support services, and how students, faculty, staff, family, friends or community members concerned about a student's well-being can advocate for and support students through stressful life circumstances and other needs.

Is your student the first in the family to attend college? Or the first in their generation? Then this is the session for you! We will be talking about how you can best help your student navigate a brand new world. Understanding that everyone is not familiar with the college environment, we hope to find ways to make you and your students' journey easier. You will learn about what it means for your student to be part of the first-generation community here at Case Western Reserve University.

Representatives from the Offices of University Financial Aid and Student Financial Services will discuss financial aid, student employment, scholarships, loans, payment plans and the student billing system. Staff will review payment due dates and answer questions on both financial aid and the payment process.

"Should I ask about the exam?" "Why doesn't she text me back?" The transition to college is an important time for students and their families. Case Western Reserve University takes the health and well-being of your student seriously. This interactive program is designed to help family members anticipate changes that may occur in their relationship with their student. New ways of interacting and providing support will be addressed by professional staff from University Health and Counseling Services. Upperclass student leaders will also speak about their experiences.

The life of a Case Western Reserve University first-year student outside the classroom is as important to their overall experiences as the academic arena. This session will offer insight into the wonderful opportunities awaiting your student. We will share information about the positive impact of participation in activities like student clubs and organizations.

We'll discuss finances (it's less expensive than you think!) and graduating on time (almost all study abroad students do). Get ready to give your student the opportunity of a lifetime!

Even if you're not a natural worrier, it's very normal to have "what if" questions just in case things do not go as planned. "What if I can't reach my student?" "What if we have a family emergency?"

Join staff from the Office of the Dean of Students as they go through a list of common questions and ways we help your student and you to navigate the unexpected.
