I love it!! Everyone is so kind, cant say the same about how good we are at sports tho. LOL!!! But the dorms are great

Emma Willard is not perfect, but I have enjoyed my time here overall. I had made great friends and met some great faculty members that I will appreciate forever.

I am so incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to attend Emma. As a current college freshman, I can see the difference in how prepared I am for college (thanks to EWS) and the preparedness of my peers. Thanks to Emma I feel extremely comfortable in a college environment, in the dorms, and talking to my professors. While at Emma, I had my ups and downs, but for the most part was very supported. Overall I couldn't have asked for a better high school experience.

There is so much support and encouragement, and she has made friends from all over the world. There are many opportunities to try new things. I highly recommend Emm...

I mean our school teachers are nice and friendly but some of them in terms of quality is pretty irresponsible. I have my best friend here so we both help each other to survive. The school has high ranking thanks to all self-study students. They study day in and day out to get good scores! Thanks to...

When I attended Emma, I never felt a sense of belonging there. It is true that most of the girls were from upper middle class families that had given them many more opportunities than my family could for me, and I generally felt like there was an Emma club to which I didn't belong. I found it very h...
