Great school, great prof.
Overall 4.7
Edgewood has a great location in a really fun city. They are always looking to improve which makes some people mad when they lose their sacred cows. get it? they're in Wisconsin :-) I know I have met people here who will be my friends for life. Professors really want to their students to succeed. Being small is both good and bad.

I absolutely LOVE it here at Edgewood. I'm graduating next semester and don't want to leave. Everyone is so friendly and the sense of community on campus is undeniable. This campus has become my home away from home and everyone here, my family.

From the moment I walked on campus as a Freshman, I felt at home. Edgewood has a certain vibe and demeanor about it. It has an incredible reputation and provides top-notch education!!! Not going to lie, it's definitely not an easy school, nor is it a party school (dry campus), but it's the BEST college decision you could possibly make! Love it here

This is the kind of school that everyone would go to if the Axis had won the war.

Attending school at Edgewood is the worst decision that I have ever made in my life. If you are considering going to school at Edgewood, then I have two words for you; don't go.

If it was not for the fact I was saving my money for graduate school I would never go to this school ever again - horrible. If your a local then I guess it's good since you will know everyone, but if your like me not from here you will hate it.

There are many good reasons why Edgewood is and always will be the second best school within a 10 block radius of itself. By all means, come to Edgewood if you want to attend a school that will forever be in the shadow of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, both geographically and academically.

It gets claustrophobic with how students get into your business. Professors do not help students pass exams. This school sets you up to fail exams then forces students to repeat classes so their pockets are full and you are left suffering financially to pay for their broken system Smh
I wish I never went here. Mental break downs as a student here

The Nursing Program is terrible. There are 5 semester which is unnecessary. The first semester the instructors preach anti-racism but yet fail to actively practice it in the program. The class size is small from 8-10 students. With this class size everyone knows your business from your test scores to your personal life. Very high school cliquey

I honestly would have rather gone into debt at another school. This was an awful overall experience which I made the most of. I honestly wish I would have just transferred to UW Madison, because I would have been just overall happier. I felt more discriminated by the other black students than everyone else.

The place to go when you want people to say, "Who are they? Never heard of them". No one will take your degree seriously. :)

The college is going down hill quick and trying to cover up that it is in major debt by continuously 'updating' the campus to try and draw more students in.
