They take a little over 50% ED (total For I and II)which is basically the same as all top 20 ED schools. |
The CDS is from last year. The 1540 avg was from the Emory Admitted students day conference several weeks ago. They also said over 80% submitted test scores. If Emory isnt aspirational enough AND TOO selective, then why do so many top students apply? You sound dumb. |
DMV has a tonne of Emory alum, Im sure their kids are applying. |
The tier is very thin. Nobody would be surprised by choosing USC or NYU over Emory, and even BU or Northeastern for CS/Engineering and Boston. There isn't much difference in student caliber, especially when Emory gets an inflow from Oxford. |
Oxford stats are almost the same as Emory stats. Many at Oxford have 1500+ SAT’s and the RD admit rate for Oxford alone is still below 20% |
Academic reputation score fluctuates a bit every year. ND was higher in 2023. https://publicuniversityhonors.com/tag/us-news-academic-reputation-rankings/ Nobody cares about graduate ranking here. ND has been a solid T20 forever. Emory not. |
And which of the top 20 ED schools would you consider a backup? That’s my point, that they take so many kids in ED (and so many TO) that a high stats kid would be a fool to treat them as a backup in RD. |
Which is overall similar to the schools like NYU, Tufts, BU, BC, Northeastern, Wake Forest, and USC. |
ND has 17 billion dollars it obviously has a slightly leg up. That leg up has nothing to do with academic reputation. You can even look at grad school placement and see Emory students place better into elite grad school than ND... why because it's academically better and yes we do care about global rankings. |
Oxford College is still better than those as well. |
WashU, ND, Vanderbilt have more TO students are they backups? |
If Emory was in the Northeast, it might be more popular than it is now. Many people refuse to consider anything south of Virginia or west of Pittsburgh. |
Only in your imaginary world. |
Of course Emory has better stats for admitted students (which is what they are talking about at admitted students day) than enrolled students (a group that won’t be finalized until fall). Every school does. The strongest admitted students are the hardest to yield. |
Or it could've been the opposite. Emory's success is perhaps because it's in the South, with much less competition. It's a total moot point to imagine anything. |
