About This School
Edmonds College is a public institution located in Lynnwood, Washington with approximately 3,656 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $11,010 per year. The graduation rate is 29%, and the typical graduate earns $42,900 within 10 years of enrollment.
Edmonds College, formerly Edmonds Community College, is a public community college in Lynnwood, Washington. More than 17,000 students annually take courses for credit toward a certificate or degree at the college. The college employs more than 1,300 people, including 126 full-time and 283 part-time instructors and 267 students.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the low median debt of $7,442 and affordable net price make this a financially sensible starting point, especially for students planning to transfer to a four-year school. However, the 33% graduation rate is a real concern — it suggests many students don't finish, which is worth asking the school directly about support services and completion rates for your specific program. Worth considering if you have a clear plan and won't need much hand-holding, but go in with eyes open.
