| . This is about Wash U. Wash U is excellent for pre-med. Wash U is very selective. The end. Save Emory and other schools for another thread and another discussion. |
Washu combined ED acceptance rate is 25%, Emory is 18%. Washu is ranked 1 position higher than Emory and that clearly has nothing to do with selectivity. Nice try tho. |
Emory mom can't stop herself 🤣 |
unhinged. truly she cannot help herself. WashU's acceptance rate is about 12%: https://source.washu.edu/2025/08/class-of-2029-embodies-washu-values/#:~:text=%E2%80%9CThe%20Class%20of%202029%20is,12%25%20of%20its%2033%2C283%20applicants. Emory's acceptance rate is about 14.95% including an inferior campus: https://emorywheel.com/article/emory-sees-slight-increase-in-acceptance-rate-for-class-of-2029-20250329 apples to apples (same year) It's okay that schools are above Emory. Really, it is. And I say that as someone who thinks Emory is a great school, but it is less selective and ranked lower than WashU. It is slightly cheaper to attend though! |
| To the outsider the WashU/Emory debate all sounds unhinged. They are as similar as it gets and neither side is doing anything remotely good for their reputations. The insecurity and defensiveness is such a turn-off. If you actually want to help your school on here, I would stop posting. |
get off your soapbox |
We're talking about ED, said if you cant get into WashU ED1 you cant get into Emory ed2. Emory ED2 is 10%. WashU ED1 is well over 25%. Learn to read. |
Where do you see most recent WashU's ED1 acceptance rate (versus a combined ED1 and ED2 acceptance rate)? |
Where is the one who said “learn to read?” Please answer this. |

WashU has an excellent pre-med program. I know of several graduates who went on to top medical schools.
WashU also has its own medical school, which is a definite plus. Know of recent Cornel undergraduate, who is headed to WashU medical school. |
| I wouldn't say Emory has an inferior campus, it's gorgeous, all white marble etc and med complex right there on campus. Plus major city and all that it has to offer. Surrounding off campus apartments have pools, tennis courts etc and weather is fab. Nothing at all to complain about with their campus, I won't give anyone that. |
| Washu has acceptance a ton off the waitlist thus far before May 1st. |
I’m a Wash. U. alum who loved Wash. U. and knew premeds who looked as if they worked hard but had a lot of fun. I think that Rice, Wash. U., Emory, Tufts and Case Western are like different campuses of the same great school. Which one is harder to get in is going to vary from year to year and may vary a lot from student to student. |
NP. I think the PP meant the Oxford campus that the Emory mom/troll here wants to sweep under the rug pretending that it doesn't exist so that Emory is just the Atlanta campus which is more selective than the Oxford one. I give it 10 minutes before Emory mom comes back with a response. |
Ignore Emory mom or troll who likes to make up information. |
