Welcome to The Cove! We exist to cultivate academic scholarship among all students. Scholarship is more than just taking accurate notes in class and memorizing facts for exams. Academic scholarship refers to the true spirit of learning. It means deeply absorbing knowledge and actively engaging with new ideas.
For you to excel in your studies, you need the proper resources. The Cove offers many such resources - including tutoring, academic workshops, stress relievers, one-on-one consultations, and much more. We will connect you with services that will help you discover your academic learning style and create goals for your Cedarville experience.
We want to meet you, learn about your life, and discover your story. So come visit The Cove today!
