Judge ruled for Harvard today. |
| DC just got off WashU waitlist yesterday. Tough decision - stay with committed Emory or go to WashU for pre-med. WashU is closer. Cost of attendance is the same. |
Two great choices - congrats! Can't go wrong. |
Yes but if the Trump administration is slow rolling VISA interviews and processing, the impact to this year will be the same. I’m surprised schools haven’t announced a hybrid first semester so if your visa gets delayed you would attend remotely until it is processed. |
Stay with Emory |
+1 whichever one your DC prefers! |
Atlanta vs Saint Louis. Pretty easy call. |
Curious are there any reasons other than location preference to choose Emory over WashU? |
Emory is better known. Is better academically at more things. |
Not sure that’s true. WashU ranks higher in med, law, biology, political science, economics, english, physics, math, psychology, and CS, among others. |
no brauner Washu |
Definitely! |
No one outside of people in academia and those looking colleges for their kids has any idea if WashU is top20 or top40. Seriously. It is the least well known good school. There are professionals and hiring managers who haven't heard of it period. Harsh but true. Emory is far more well known. |
Eh, you can literally say the same about Emory. |
Washu much better for med school. There is really no comparison. Sorry. |
