At Edgewood College, we are committed to developing inclusive leaders and ensuring that our faculty, staff and administrators have the skills needed to lead a diverse community.
Central to doing this is creating opportunities for our faculty and staff to sharpen their skills and competencies:
Edgewood College offers financial assistance to underrepresented students through scholarships and awards that promote diversity within our community.
To create or support an existing scholarship, please contact: giving@edgewood.edu
At Edgewood College, we believe in the life, dignity and equality of the human person and that every person is created with infinite value, equally worthy of care and respect. We are committed to recruiting, enrolling and supporting a diverse student population, regardless of documentation and citizenship.
With this foundation and guiding principle(s), we consider Undocumented, DREAMer & DACA students living in the United States as candidates for admissions. Students living within the state of Wisconsin qualify for in-state tuition, regardless of status, at Edgewood College.
Institutional financial aid and scholarships are available for Undocumented, DREAMer & DACA students at Edgewood College.
While attending Edgewood College, resources and support for this student population are also made available.
At Edgewood College, we encourage students to explore and discuss the many faith traditions and spiritual practices of our diverse community. The division of Dominican Life & Mission offers interfaith programming and opportunities throughout the year for students to engage in learning and develop the skills needed to build a just and compassionate world.
Community members of all faith backgrounds and spiritual beliefs may find the Edgewood College Interfaith Prayer Room, located in Predolin 209B, as a space for peaceful reflection, meditation, or prayer.
The ALANA Support Network (ASN) is a network of faculty and staff of color that advocate for enhanced diversity and inclusion at Edgewood College.
The network was established in 2011 by a small group of ALANA employees to better support one another through fellowship and learned experience, and has since grown to include close to 50 members. The ASN meets regularly throughout the academic year for both social and business meetings. The Network also sponsors an ALANA Peer Mentoring Program which matches junior faculty and staff with faculty and staff of color that have been at Edgewood College for over two years.
To contact members of the ASN, please email ALANANetwork@edgewood.edu
