Financial Aid General Information Cedarville University offers a variety of financial aid programs to assist students with education-related expenses. Although Cedarville University supports the premise that the primary responsibility for financing a college education rests with the student and family, aid programs are available to supplement personal resources. Some of the financial aid available at the University is considered to be need-based aid. Students are asked to complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). An analysis of the family’s financial data is performed and the results are used to determine the eligibility for need-based assistance. For filing online, obtain an FSA ID for both the parent and student and complete the FAFSA at fafsa.gov. In addition to need-based aid, the University also offers meritbased aid to students who demonstrate recognized achievement or talent. Merit scholarship categories include academic, leadership, athletic, music, forensics, theatre, and debate. The financial aid homepage has direct links to several scholarship databases. Students are encouraged to investigate privately-funded scholarships through the use of the Internet and accessing cedarville.edu/finaid. Students should advise Financial Aid when they receive additional assistance from sources other than Cedarville University. This assistance will be considered when preparing award packages and may result in the revision of a previously prepared package. A financial aid award notification will be provided to students after reviewing completed application data and after a student is accepted for admission to Cedarville University. Financial aid is applied for and awarded on a yearly basis. Aid applicants must continue to meet program qualifications in order to retain eligibility. All questions may be directed to Financial Aid at 937-766-7866. Visit Cedarville’s financial aid website at cedarville. edu/finaid and the FAFSA website at fafsa.gov. When completing the FAFSA, the Title IV Code for Cedarville University is 003025. 2023–24 Undergraduate Academic Catalog Page 309 Financial Information Financial Aid
