"We are excited to expand our relationship with Cedarville University and introduce our very first campus card program," said Jon Groch,
senior vice president and director of Bankcard Services for Fifth Third Bank. "The cedarville1card will offer users convenient access to
their money through a card they already carry for campus access and activities." Groch adds that the Bank expects to partner with
additional schools to expand its campus card program portfolio.

financial aid directly to a student’s checking account."
The cards are now available beginning with the fall 2011 semester. To use the cedarville1card as a debit card, cardholders will need to
link to a Fifth Third Bank checking account.
