Johns Hopkins vs Emory vs WashU vs BC

[Anonymous]

Hopkins alum here, Hopkins does not have an undergraduate business school, but has long had a strong economics department. An added plus, both men’s and women’s lacrosse teams are having banner seasons and are ranked in the T10 nationally. Go Hop!

And — unlike when I graduated (I’m NP) in 89, Hopkins is no longer place where fun goes to die!

Econ and business is not the same, but getting into Emory’s business school is fairly easy. They accept 85% of students that apply.

I would go to Emory or BC.

I'm a Hopkins alum who stuck around in Baltimore for 10 years after graduation. I will always have a fondness for the university and the city and they are both a large part of who I am as an adult.

However, I 100% think there are many better places to attend undergrad if you want a balanced and vibrant college experience.

Another Hopkins alum and I disagree. I had plenty of fun - was involved in Greek life, etc . . , Emory actually seemed not very fun to me and my student. From no sports to food trucks being touted as highlight of week to tour guide saying students were all nerds, it just seemed kind of dead. GaTech actually had a lot more energy on campus.

If you can't find fun in Atlanta, you can't find it anywhere. My friends and I went off campus every weekend when I was at Emroy. There's always a party or club having something.

My kid was looking for a place where the fun was on campus and was able to find that elsewhere.

That's great but understand most city schools have the city to offer not on campus activities. It's no different at NYU or BU, or Upenn.
