How does the Clery Act affect Edgewood College?

The Clery Act (Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act) requires all colleges and universities that participate in federal financial aid programs to disclose crime statistics and security information annually. The data reported here comes directly from the US Department of Education's OPE Campus Safety and Security Survey.

What is a campus safety score?

The safety score divides 2024 on-campus Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents by enrollment, per 1,000 students. It does not include arrests, disciplinary referrals, fire records, unreported harm, or nearby crime. Lower scores mean fewer included incidents relative to enrollment. Only nonzero scores at campuses with 500 or more students are ranked; a 0.00 score is left unranked.

Cost context

Where Edgewood College sits on price and outcomes

See Wisconsin's cost ranking

At $26,113, Edgewood College's reported average net price is cheaper than 86% among 71 Wisconsin colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $16,210.

$26,113
average net price: $16,210
Wisconsin median: 2.2×
six-year earnings to median debt: $8,622
reported income-bracket spread

Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $22,291 for families reporting under $30,000 against $30,913 above $110,000, a difference of $8,622. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $26,113 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.

Six-year median earnings of $53,843 run about 2.1 times the annual net price. The margin is real but narrow, so how many years of price a student actually pays matters a great deal here.

Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
