The classes that I'm in are not as hard as I thought they were going to be. The classes aren't just all lecture, they use power points and talk about the topics.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I love that everything is so close. You get more one on one time with the professors and get to know a lot of new people. I have a lot of the same people in my classes which is really nice. There is always something going on around campus and many clubs to join. Also, for being a student at Edgewood, you can get free boat rentals.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I thought that coming to a private college would cost a lot of money but there are so many scholarships to help you pay for your tuition. You just have to apply for them. I got a scholarship for living in Illinois and another one for getting good grades in high school. I found that Edgewood College helped me out more with my tuition than a larger public college that I was looking at.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Some advice that I have is to come and visit the campus before you make any decisions and see if you like it because if you decide to attend, you are going to be living here.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
This college is good for students who learn better in a smaller environment and class sizes.
