1978-1979 Academic Catalog

Admission and Finances The Admissions Committee carefully considers all factors which demonstrate the applicant's ability to succeed at Cedarville College. The Committee bases its choice on the following: 1) The applicant's evidence of having been born again and having lived a consistent Christian life as indicated by his personal testimony and pastor's recommendation: 2) his academic record and rank in class as shown by his official transcripts; 3) and his scholastic ability as shown by the American College Test (ACT) or the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT); 4) some students whose high school records are less than satisfactory may be ad– mitted on condition or through the Educational Development Program which is de– scribed under Special Programs of Study. Transfer students and applicants who have been out of high school one year or more are not required to furnish ACT or SAT scores. The college does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, or national or– igin. Admission Procedme 1.

Students who have completed their junior year of high school may apply for early entrance. This is especially important for students who anticipate a lengthy graduate program after graduation from college. An interview for qualified students is suggested. Readmission A student whose academic work has been interrupted for one quarter or more must apply for readmission.
