I only been here for a week because I am a transfer but from what I can tell, the school is very welcoming. They gave us free mask and a shirt and they gave us sanitizer and a computer for those who don’t access to one. The only thing is that they are unorganized because they tell us things last minute because when I was enrolling it took me forever to get cleared. I’ll do everything they ask me and then they add more to it. I went to multiple zoom meetings and it took at least an hour or more for them to talk to me.
EWC being the oldest private HBCU college in the State of Florida, things have been forever done the traditional way. It is a family orientated campus. The staff is helpful and friendly. Some professors are fairly easy-going and considerate but do not take any slack. Student life is academically oriented during the week and more social on the weekends. There are local clubs and events in the area that can be a go-to throughout the year. The athletics in the past has been a hit and miss, but things are looking up for the better. Located in the inner-city the buddy system is recommended. Campus security is available 24/7 and their office is centrally located on campus. On-Campus living is big hit as far as amenities and living space nor is there co-ed living.
