Despite NEUs low acceptance rate, NEU students can't get into Emory.

Also, my head would spin right off my body if I heard of a graduating senior choosing a school that was known as a 4-year community college for decades. Rankings may have changed, but you can’t shake that rep so easily.

And yet another poster who sees Emory and Tufts as peer schools.

What? Tufts is more fun?? Yall are annoying. That phrase is definitely used for UCHICAGO.

And Emory. No spectator sports, low school spirit, and kids that brag about being nerdy.

My DS was in a similar situation and deciding on an ED school.
Emory and NYU were the top two final choices.
He went with NYU and didn't consider Emory to have better prestige.

Northeastern, BU??!lol. Your son is one person, not the majority. And yes none of those schools have ever been ranked higher than Emory. The gap between Emory and these schools are growing. People from the Northeast keep trying to elevate their declining privates. Like Northeastern? Give me a break.

These Emory people are really delusional still living in the 80s

https://www.parchment.com/c/college/tools/college-cross-admit-comparison.php?compare=emory+&with=New+York+University

NYU: 56%
Emory: 44%

The gap is closing and Emory is not regarded more prestigious, maybe slightly but negligible.

Average SAT
Northeastern: 1435
Emory:1380

Retention
Northeastern: 98%
Emory: 95%

Graduation rate
Northeastern: 91%
Emory: 90%

4 year out median salary
Northeastern: $89K
Emory: 82K

Northeastern actually beats Emory in every major metrics LOL
I suspect Emory people posting here are in their 70s 80s

Lol what?! 1380? Emorys median is 1500.

Test Optional could skew the numbers, so this is from 2018 and it's average.

No need to use third party sites when both schools just released a recent CDS profile this month.
Emory- 1500, 92% Graduation rate, 96% yeild.
Northeastern- 1500, 90% Graduation rate, 97% yeild. Remember only 35% of NEU students submit test scores.
https://provost.emory.edu/planning-administration/data/common-data-set.html
https://uds.northeastern.edu/facts/common-data-set/

So again, pretty much on par similar to the other sources.

If that makes you feel better. What separates them is the reputation, and NEU doesn't have a great one.

You seem disappointed at the data and facts.

Well.. how do you measure the reputation?
Tons of high stat kids(same quality as Emory) apply and attend NEU.
In fact, more kids(close to 100K) apply to NEU, thus reputation among students seems great.
Not any less than Emory.

Also NEU is known for great reputation among employers, and thus produce great outcome.
Not any less than Emory.

Another Emory delusion.

Careful, there are posters here who loathe Tufts, calling it a crappy, declining school with rats running around the dorms.

Go to the school your kid will fit in best at. Emory's reputation and Tufts reputation are not going to move the needle out in the real world.

What's the matter with BC? Who cares if it was a commuter college for decades? What students care about is how is the institution today?

At our private, there is a notable difference in gpa between kids getting into Emory/Tufts on one hand and NE on the other. NE pretty actively yield protects and is not (yet) getting the same caliber of applicant.

Emory is big on yield protection and has high ED acceptance rate.
That's why my DS choose NYU and Emory as final two choices for ED.

Don't get me wrong. Emory is great school and that's why it was one of the final two for my DS.
However, delusional Emory people need to stand down.
Prestige factor is negligible compared to the NE schools mentioned.

Something about Emory ticks people off. Unlike Vandy, Rice, Georgetown, etc. Tufts and Northeastern are almore similar than different. They're 3rd tier schools that happen to have very strong students due to location. Massachusetts has some of the smartest people in the country and both Tufts and Northeastern benefit from that. However one shouldn't confuse selectivity with prestige.

Emory is much more prestigious than Tufts. It also has a high percentage of kids from the NE, if that’s the student population your kid desires. It’s not like just because Emory is in GA only southern kids go there.

It's' the Ivies that invented yield protection and ED.

NYU is harder to get in with 7% acceptance rate (at least for Stern, CAS, Tisch).
Emory is not on any level higher than NYU. Only Emory people believe that.

Yes most of these 2nd tier selective relatively prestigious schools like Emory, NYU, Tufts utilize ED and have high ED acceptance rates.
