Cedarville is always looking for ways to help make our distinctly Christian education more affordable and accessible for families. We do that by offering online Dual Enrollment coursesthree-year completion plans for many of our popular undergraduate degrees, and accelerated pathways to graduate degrees for students who value or need that additional level of education.

Dual Enrollment Classes During High School

Did you know that you can save 80% on normal tuition rates when your student takes an online Dual Enrollment course? You'll check off general education or major-specific classes from your student's college degree program while earning upper-level high school credit. Ohio high school students even have the chance to earn these credits for free through Ohio's College Credit Plus (CCP) program!

Taking courses through Dual Enrollment can also help your student graduate early from college. Taking around 30 credits of Dual Enrollment courses will set your student on the right path to graduate in three years, while taking 15 credits will set them up to graduate a semester early.

Accelerated Undergraduate Degrees

By completing their degree in three years, your student could reduce their college bill by $15,000 or more and enter the workforce to begin earning a salary one year sooner, making the value of a three-year degree $50,000 or more!

With careful planning and advising, many of Cedarville's undergraduate programs can be completed in three years. Visit our website to learn more about accelerated completion options and consider the possibilities for your student.

Starting fall 2025, Cedarville will also offer all-new, fully online undergraduate degrees! These flexible degree programs will give your student the chance to get their degree while pursuing job or ministry goals. Accelerated or online completion options make Cedarville a flexible learning opportunity made to fit your student!

Undergraduate + Graduate Dual Degrees

Another great way to save money is with one of Cedarville's accelerated pathways to a graduate degree. Cedarville's dual degrees will help your student save both time and money as they pursue their professional goals.

We offer a five-year BA in Biblical Studies + Master of Divinity, a five-year BS in Sport Medicine + Master of Athletic Training, and a six- or seven-year pathway leading to a BS in Pharmaceutical Sciences and a Doctor of Pharmacy degree.

We’ve also created pathways that allow students to combine their major with an MBA or one of our graduate ministry degrees, saving thousands of dollars on the cost of two degrees, making them even more marketable to employers, and moving them into your vocation more quickly. Learn more about graduate pathways on our website.
