Do not go here unless you plan to be a Pastor (or other Christian Ministry worker) or teacher.

Before I get negative, let's talk about the good. Professors can be awesome and very helpful, some of the best people on earth. A few have real issues with living in the modern world, but on average the prof's are helpful, knowledgeable, and guiding. Also, the religion courses are about as good as you will find. They are scripture based, but actually involve thinking about living in the real world. No Bob Jones or Pensacoloa cult atmosphere.

Ok, the negative: everything else. It's a private college that runs on donations. Most donors are rabid right wing Neo-con Nazis, therefore, you can imagine what kind of biases might be present.

Culturally closed minded to the extreme (officially at least, some prof's do an excellent job of being subversive, but do you really want to go to a college where being open minded is considered 'subversive'?)

Surrounding area is a corn field for almost 60 miles. It's a black hole of fun. Ugh...

The good: the classes are fairly challenging and the professors are very accessible, helpful, and friendly. All my professors know my name. The campus is nice, and is in a small town - interesting things to do and it is close to larger cities. The students are pretty friendly.
The bad: It's small enough that if you want to do a double major or a major and minor from two different departments you will have great difficulty scheduling classes. Tuition is fairly expensive, and financial aid isn't the greatest. Chapels are very loud, with extremely raucous music. As a Christian school, not many of the students have a desire to live holy lives, as much as they profess to "love Jesus." (Although in this respect it's certainly better than many other "Christian" schools I've seen.)
Collaboration/Competitive: A+, Innovation: B+

I am a recent graduate of Cedarville and I must say that as I look back over my 4 years I was truly blessed to attend such an incredible university. Not only have I been challenged academically, I have been challenged spiritually as well. I have left Cedarville with a clear understanding of the gospel and what it means to be a servant of Christ. As I approach the "real world" I feel as prepared as I can be and the areas I am not prepared for I have learned that leaning on the Lord is the only clear solution. I am currently working in Cincy and as I started my job I realized that my eduaction at Cedarville has prepared me well for my job, and also for the mission field that I come into every day. Cedarville was an incredible experience for me! Some people would say that the University is great but that the surrounding area is little to be desired, but I found that because of the lack of industry we were able to make our own fun, and grow closer relationships because of that. I am thankful for the many friendships I have made at Cedarville and for the fact that I know they will last forever..... Cedarville has had a truly positive impact on my life.

I am an army brat, and have lived all over the world. I have found Cedarville to be a wonderful school that balances a very strong academic base with a strong Christian influence, something that I very much appreciate.
