Edgewood College, Private college in Madison, United States
Edgewood College is a private institution situated on a 55-acre campus along Lake Wingra in Madison. The college offers undergraduate and graduate programs to approximately 2,000 students from its location near the water.
The college began in 1927 as a two-year institution for women and later expanded into a four-year university. Over the following decades it added more academic programs and broadened its student body.
The Dominican Sisters of Sinsinawa shaped the place through spaces dedicated to reflection and community service that remain central to campus life. These values continue to guide how students engage with each other and the surrounding neighborhoods.
The campus sits along the lakeshore with accessible pathways and open spaces for walking. Visitors can explore the grounds at their own pace and visit the library and academic buildings throughout the day.
The campus library connects to a broader network of library resources across Madison. This partnership allows students to access materials far beyond what the college buildings alone could hold.
