Tips for a Smooth College Drop-Off
Thursday, August 18, 2022
From one parent to another … dropping your child off at college is hard (especially if it’s your first time!). As you prepare to bring
your student to Cedarville to begin his or her college career, please be assured of two things:
- Your son or daughter rests securely in God’s hand. He has great plans for them (Jer. 29:11) and will never leave them alone (Heb. 13:5).
- Cedarville University will do everything we can to love and support your child — personally, academically, and spiritually. We are so honored that you have entrusted your child to us, and we take that responsibility very seriously.
Read today's post for tips for a successful drop-off. Don't worry, Mom and Dad, you've got this!
Jeff Beste
Director of Strategic Relations (and a Cedarville dad!)
P.S. When you come to campus in a few days, be sure to stop by the Parent Zone outside the chapel. We would love to meet you and welcome you to Cedarville!
