Student Aid Purpose of financial aid program. In addition to its own funds, Cedarville College participates in most federal programs including the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant Program. Residents of Ohio are also eligible to receive state grant and loan awards. Students applying for financial aid are considered for all programs for which they are eligible. The amount of financial aid awarded is generally a combination of grant, loan, and employment, and is based on the financial need of the student. Need is determined by subtracting the resources of the student and his or her parents' contribution from the total student expenses. The parents' contribution is estimated on the basis of the amount of their income and assets as well as a consideration of taxes, medical expenses, and other liabilities of the family. An independent, objective, nationally recognized method of analysis developed by the College Scholarship Service is used to evaluate the family's financial circumstances. All financial aid awards to students are determined by the Cedarville College Office of Financial Aid. Procedures for applying for financial aid. Students should apply for financial aid by May 1st. Students who are at present living with their parents or guardians and who were claimed as dependents for the previous calendar year should also submit a Parent's Confidential Statement (PCS) [or Financial Aid Form (FAF)] to the College Scholarship Service by March 1st.
