The Cedar Crest Scholarship is a full-tuition scholarship awarded to one first-year traditional student who is the winner of the annual Scholarship Competition. Additional scholarship money is awarded to finalists. The scholarship covers full-time tuition minus any additional grants or outside scholarships and supersedes any other Cedar Crest money. To participate in the competition, the student must be admitted to Cedar Crest and have been awarded a Presidential, Trustee, or Founder's Scholarship.
