College Overview: Emerson

Emerson: Stealing your money since 1880 and spending it on booze and parties
When I started at Emerson, I was so excited and ready to begin what I thought would be a new adventurous and educational life. Instead, I spent 2 years being disrespected, bullied, or ignored by the faculty and staff at Emerson College. For a communications school, there is little to no communication between departments or with students.

Emerson: It's what you make of it.
I'll be honest: I had nothing but scorn for Emerson when they first sent me a viewbook. All I saw were buzzwords and low test scores. But as soon as I stepped onto the campus overlooking the Boston Common, I could feel the passion and focus that is such a strength of this school, and because of that atmosphere, I’ve never really looked back. By that same token, it’s important to remember that Emerson is an incredibly specific school. Make sure Emerson offers whatever major you...

Emerson: Creative Students
This is a school for creative students who intend on majoring in the art and communication fields ONLY. Students here are passionate about their work and are very involved with multiple clubs. The staff consists of mostly professionals, some who work full time and teach a few classes a week. Emerson offers students hands on experience before they graduate. Students that are heavily athletic, lazy and homophobic should stay away from Emerson at all costs.
