Join fellow incoming Cedarville freshmen for WAVE, a two-week residential academic program that will prepare you to succeed in college-level academics. You’ll learn valuable skills as you get acclimated to campus and build a sense of community with your future classmates. After successfully completing the program, you will be awarded a yearly renewable $2,000 WAVE scholarship* ($8,000 over your four years as a student)! This will be added to any other financial aid you may receive.

*All WAVE students are required to complete the WAVE program expectations and the WAVE class requirements by the due dates in order to qualify for the scholarship. A $2,000 scholarship is awarded yearly to students who maintain a 2.5 GPA at Cedarville University. The WAVE program cost can not be applied toward this scholarship.
