Is the Cost of College Worth It?

March 14, 2012

Headlines questioning the value of a college education have been all over the media. Unfortunately, many of the reports come to incomplete and unfavorable conclusions.

That's why a recent article in Cedarville University's award-winning student newspaper "Cedars" caught my eye. Cedarville senior Bekah Cvetich weighed in on "Is College Really Worth it?" I thought her insights, responding to a recent Popular Mechanics article, were worth sharing.

Placement rates, national rankings, and student satisfaction scores -- not to mention transformed lives and graduates' passionate about changing this world for Jesus Christ -- affirm that a Cedarville education is a worthwhile investment. But we know that choosing Cedarville requires intentional sacrifices for many families.

If you are wrestling with how to make Cedarville University affordable for your student, please contact our Financial Aid team today to begin a conversation.
