[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Applicants to Emory University can apply as freshman to either, or both, Emory College of Arts and Sciences on the main campus, and Oxford College, on a campus 30 miles outside of Atlanta. The yield for Oxford College is always low. It looks like Emory University admitted some 4,000 students for less than 500 seats this year at Oxford, and that is part of the reason why Emory's overall yield is low.

FWIW, I visited both campuses last year with DC and loved the Oxford campus but DC was less impressed.

Oxford College data isn't in the 15% yield- it reflects just Emory U. The data is here and represents Fall 2016 enrolled students: https://bigfuture.collegeboard.org/college-university-search/emory-university  (click the "Applying" button)

Here was their data from July 2016 based on their website: http://apply.emory.edu/discover/fastfacts.php Note that you can distinguish between Emory U and Oxford C. I'm guessing they had to admit a few more students and ended up losing others after July (to waitlists, late gap years) to get their final class and to submit the data they did to Collegeboard shown above. If you try including the early admits at Oxford, there isn't enough room to account for everyone (this link shows 174 Oxford ED admits and 664 Emory ED admits, whereas Collegeboard shows 707 ED admits).
