That says more about you than it does about Emory.

Emory is in the same athletic conference with Chicago, NYU, Carnegie-Mellon, Brandeis, Rochester, Case Western Reserve, and Washington U/St. Louis. Those are its peers. Ever hear of any of them?

Basketball and Lacrosse.

Other than someone from Chicago winning the first Heisman, what have any of those schools done in athletics? Athletic conference doesn't necessarily set academic peers -- or would you view Alabama as the peer of Vanderbilt?

They're both fine. They will both wobble around top 20-30 for the foreseeable future.

I never heard of any of these schools. Emory? Georgetown? I’m sure none of them is as old as the Sorbonne. Bwah ha ha ha ha.

Seriously OP your post is pretty much the dumbest ever.

There are more letters in the word “Georgetown” than in the word “Emory.” That makes Georgetown superior to Emory by five whole letters.

Eat your heart out, OP.

This is stupid.

Georgetown is a regional school

Georgetown isn't top 10 for public policy. Not impressive considering it's there specialty.

They are both great schools. Emory is probably less well-known than Georgetown because it's older and in the nation's capital, but both offer great educations. If a kid wants to live/work in DC or the northeast, Georgetown probably has an edge; if in the South, Emory has a slight edge. Also depends on what fields are of greatest interest to a kid.

According to the Dept. of Education's College Scorecard, Georgetown's graduation and retention rates are slightly higher than Emory's; median earnings of Georgetown graduates (>$93k) are a good deal higher than Emory graduates (~$72k). Georgetown's has fewer students receiving Pell grants (14%)and a higher percentage of white students (51%) compared to Emory (19% and 39%, respectively).

Georgetown has a better law school. Emory has a better medical school. According to Parchment (FWIW), students admitted to both choose Georgetown 74% of the time and Emory 26% of the time.

But basically, the rankings difference for the undergraduate programs is negligible. (And silly to obsess over. Is Yale "better" than Harvard? Is Stanford "worse" than MIT? Georgetown is not "better" than Emory, and Emory is not "better" than Georgetown.)

Well, OP, this PP burned you, on straight up facts.
