Case Western Reserve University LEAP Certificate Pathway - Summer 2025

[CurlyInScrubs]

Hello! I wanted to create this thread for updates for those applying to the LEAP Certificate program through Case Western the deadline is December 6. I'm nervous, but excited! I did attend one of their information sessions over the Summer and they mentioned that all applications would be reviewed at the same time. There was no early decisions. All applications would be reviewed once the application cycle has closed and that we'll start hearing responses in January.

I was reading last years forum and it looks like people got invites for interviews around January 15th, interviews were the 29 or 30th and then they found out if accepted around February 17th or so. I'm honestly so scared to get an interview, they're so stressful!!

These stats are pretty good, do you have an idea of why you were previously denied? Did you reach out for feedback from the directors to find out why?
