Are the private schools ranked 30-70...

What's the Emory GPA of its junior college (Oxford)? Its marketing piece doesn't mention that stat? For the marketing piece for the class of 2029, the GPA of 3.83 is forADMITTED students. Not enrolled. Enrolled freshman statistics will always be lower, be it for GPA or SAT.

First have your kid apply to Emory. See if they’re admitted to the Oxford campus. Then you can question the qualifications of the Students.

This Emory booster is one touchy soul.

The back and forth is ridiculous.
4.0- 17.4%
3.75-3.99- 58.38%
3.5-3.74- 21.24%

avg 3.84
Straight from the CDS from last year. This year clearly won't be much different.

Sorry you suffer from an insecurity complex.

I dont think its insecurity. What are you paying extra for exactly? Small class sizes? Just do an honors program if thats the case. You need a prestigious name to cut through the 1000 applications jobs get nowadays.

Wake, Tulane, and BC are very well regarded institutions. Many colleges are. I don't get the childish urge to sneer at different colleges. And that's not meant as an insult to children because even they don't do that.

It is rather odd.

Imagine being a grown adult trying to disprove that a well regarded college is actually good.

Insane loser behavior.

I can see going down a level for merit. But, for us, overseas is where the price meets value.

Value is relative.
You probably don't see the value in BMW, Mercedes, Lexus but there are people purchasing them while there are people buying Honda, Mazda, VW etc.

well the OP asked about "worth the investment". and now I dont think these schools ranked after T20 is worth 400k +

Again 'Worth' similar to 'Value' is relative and subjective. There are affluent people who think these schools are worth 400K relative to 3000+ other colleges after them. You don't represent the world.

No they are not. By test score its
WashU>Emory>Georgetown>UVa>>UF

The gap between WashU and Emory is tiny, statistically not a difference.
1490-1550/33-35
1470-1540/33-35

Georgetown is lower than UVa although it is TR and UVa is TO.
It should look like this
WashU=Emory>>UVa>Georgetown>>UF
UF is no where near Emory or WashU.

The resident Emory hater will still say its garbage because of 20 points.

In theory Emory has higher test scores. For the recent class about 70% of Emory students submit scores vs 50% for WashU.

Their lower endowments make me concerned they'll lose brand power in the Trump era; while costing the same as T20/25 schools. If DC can't get into Georgetown or similar, should they just go to UMD?

"Just" go to UMD? If your DC is considering privates in T30-70 you mentioned (which BTW are great schools for the right kids) then unlikely that they have what it takes to get in UMD. If your DC is in-state and from the W schools, anything less than UW 4.0 is a red flag for UMD admission, and that is for EA round. Zero chance to be accepted in RD round. If in-state and from a non W school outside Montgomery County, then much better chance. If you are out of state and full pay, then your DC chances in getting the T30-70 schools mentioned is significantly greater than getting to UMD as OOS.

For reference look at the CDS UMDCP (92% admitted has UW GPA 4.0). Compare that to the CDS of the schools mentioned above. Again, those schools provide great educational value for the right students.

I am looking at Naviance from our W school and this is objectively untrue. UMD is not an easy admit by any means, and it is harder from a W school, but you absolutely do not need a 4.0 from our school. You just need to have very good grades and relatively high test scores.

only 62% submitted test scores for
emory. washu has higher test scores, higher class rank, and higher gpa. Higher desirability and better students vs emory

washu had 59% submit test scores vs 62% for emory - negligible difference despite these emory clowns saying otherwise

For Emory Oxford, their transfer junior college they own, do they accept test scores? I know that if you do UVA Wise you can have lower test scores. Out in California you don't need an SAT at all if you transfer in from community college. For Emory that is one way to get some admission seats filled.

Not for this current year.

973 submitted/ 1441 enrolled. 68% submitted test scores.
WashU hasn't released this data yet.

Oxford isnt like UVa Wise at all, it more similar to Barnard in selectivity.
https://provost.emory.edu/planning-administration/data/factbook/admissions.html
They have the same test profile as Emory College
1470-1540/33-35 however 60% submit test scores. Instead of 68%.
