  • Being an international student at Cedarville is one of the best choices that I have made so far in my life. The daily God's Word in every curriculum paves me to know more about the goodness and the love of God. Unlike others, the Cedarville community is a warm and caring community with faculty members and professors taking care of each single student for their wellbeing and success. The ISS office is also willing to help each student, even with small things. I thank God for providing such an opportunity to be a Cedarville international student.

  • I would not trade my design degree from Cedarville for anything. It was the perfect preparation for where the Lord has me today: a healthy mix of technical skills, work ethic, project management, faith integration, creative thinking, and room for failure. I may never be an art director at the MOMA or win any awards for groundbreaking ideas, but I love what I do and feel more than equipped to do it.

  • I wanted to attend a pharmacy school with a Christian curriculum to understand how to represent Christ well as a pharmacist. I cherish my training here at Cedarville because I believe it is developing me into a skilled healthcare professional and a better ambassador for Christ.
