Tell me the good the bad and the ugly about Emory

[Anonymous]

No football of other spectator sports. Not a lot of school spirit, campus feels kind of dead, has a reputation for a lame social scene compared to others southern schools. Seems like most kids seek social life in the city, rather than on campus. Very pretty campus, tho

This is a dumb comment. Almost half the class is ED. All could have done that elsewhere.

You cant read. Those that have choices in RD go elsewhere.

Overall yield is complete trash at 37%.

Oh look who's back resident Emory hater troll.

Apparently math is a hater.

Its not the math, its how you choose to interpret it. Just like I can say Emory receives the second most applicants amoung its peer group. Vanderbilt, WashU, Notre Dame, Georgetown, CMU, Dartmouth, and Rice.

Given that ED1 and 2, yield numbers are not great.

My kid has enjoyed the events/festivals hosted by different cultural affinity groups both on and off campus. They have also enjoyed some of the attractions of Atlanta, such as pro sports, restaurants, etc. Emory understandably has a large pre-med cohort, but plenty of opportunities for humanities kids too. My humanities kid has enjoyed their classes and professors there.

+1 My DS is a freshman at Georgia Tech and I agree with the above. He absolutely loves Atlanta and he's from the Midwest. He can't wait to get back after break.

My very social kid visited both and actually preferred GaTech. Campus seemed much more vibrant and better location actually in city, yet still plenty of green space. Plus ACC sports with stadiums on campus.

That shocked us about Gtech as well. A lot of the campus (west side) is almost like a nature preserve and more beautiful than we expected and you don't even realize you are in the city. Then you have Georgia Tech Square on the East Side (more city) where the Greek life is and Bobby Dodd stadium and food and shops. Really fit our DS well. GT has a nice relationship with Emory and vice versa and my son said often their students come over to Tech Square and during football games. Really fun.

100 isnt a lot, if you're saying the yeild is 37%. Thats only 37 students.
