Former EDC Student Profile
Anyone thinking of joining ED6 should not have to think twice about it. ED6 is such a great place to go - I had the greatest time while I was there and I would advise everyone who wants to get a brilliant education, whilst also having an amazing time at college, to go to ED6.
