The school is absolutely horrible, usually the appearance doesn't bother my but the moment you start classes.. teachers are extremely lazy. I have yet to have a good teacher where they actually act like they want to teach something. School is extremely unorganized. They post all this food stuff on social media about the school, don't live up to it.

Very unorganized for an HCBU, my older brother attends a much larger HCBU and has not have any of the unnecessary drama I have had my first year here!! Can not wait to transfer out, if any other school will take these worthless credits.. Looks like attending ANY community college would have been better than this!!!

I left Edward Waters after a year. The classes are elementary and the majority of my professors were not very educated. Registration each semester is awful even if you do "early" registration. The system they use is antiquated, making each student stand in several different lines that can take over an hour a piece. Horrible institution.
