It’s one school and these kids have agreed to go if accepted for whichever campus they chose. All schools will likely go down again this year, including Vandy, which is already reported to have record number of apps.




Vandy and Emory are peer schools. Not Vandy and Oxford. Nothing wrong with Emory having a satellite campus, but you're using said campus to knock Emory down a peg, which isn't fair. No one counts UVA wise in UVa stats, nor do they count NYUs 2 other campuses in its acceptance rate or do they count Barnard into Columbias numbers. You all only do it to Emory because you all are biased.



That’s right, but for the record, Barnard’s acceptance rate was 7 percent, and even lower in recent years.
It’s a wonderful school that doesn’t have to compare itself with Columbia. (And also is part of CU, get over it.)

To state the obvious, Barnard has a completely different identity than Columbia, including its own admissions office. We need to stop giving attention to a crazy person who is trying to disown a third of the school because she is upset Emory has an ED acceptance rate above 30, which is also insane btw. Oxford campus admits have the same average stats as main campus, and wind up leading many of the clubs at Emory as upperclassman. And for those that are worried, the Emory parents I know irl are completely normal.

Oxford also has its own admissions office... Emory says Oxford has its own identity as an LAC. Barnard students take classes at Columbia just like Oxford students at Emory. USnews doesn't count Oxford in its calculations concerning Emory. You shouldn't either.



Emory considers Oxford a division of Emory, not a separate school. From the Emory web site, admissions page:

Oxford College is where Emory began in 1836. After Emory College of Arts and Sciences became part of Emory University in Atlanta in 1919, Oxford became a division where students could begin their first two years of a four-year liberal arts education.

Emory and Oxford offer equivalent curricula and maintain parallel academic standard

Oxford College and Emory College are academically equal and both programs are looking for the most qualified students

Oxford is Emory University’s smallest division but also its most diverse

Again, that's great. But when speaking of stats like acceptance rate Emory keeps them separate. See the CDS profile that doesn't mention Oxford, or their US News page that doesn't either, Or even their freshman profile page that also keeps them separate. Emory treats Oxford like Northeastern treats it's other branches and that's fine. No reason to be upset at facts.

What do you mean? Are the RD stats trustworthy? If so, why wouldn't the ED stats be trustworthy?

Great students, but a 1530 is still within their middle 50 percentile.

DD Rejected as well, but into UGA honors and Gatech so still satisfied.

Maybe referring to the fact that Emory juked their stats for a decade.

No it doesn’t. Emory treats Oxford like a co-equal division, NE does not. In any case, it’s really weird that distinguishing kids with identical stats is so important to you. Regardless, Emory’s ED1 admission rate for last cycle remains 32 percent, per the Emory student paper.

My kids have no interest in applying ED, or RD. Not the right fit. I just object to your attempt to give second class status to a group of equally talented kids. Kindness is not your forte.

No, 26 percent was the combined ED1 and ED2 rate for both campuses.

Your, not you're.
DCs, not DC's.

You would probably be rejected ED from DePauw.
