Cedarville University strives to provide the highest quality educational opportunities available. However, if a conflict does arise, the University will make every effort to resolve your grievances, complaints, or concerns in an expeditious, fair, and amicable manner.

Cedarville University’s online students residing outside the state of Ohio who would like to file an academic-related complaint should follow the process outlined in the Student Handbook.

Complaint Resolution Contacts by State

Please try to exhaust all possible avenues of complaint resolution before going outside of the University. However, if a complaint cannot be resolved through Cedarville University’s appeal process, you may file a complaint with the state where you reside. In compliance with federal Department of Education regulations, Cedarville provides a list of state agencies with contact information for each state.
