[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would Emory-Oxford stack up against other LAC’s if it were an independent liberal arts college? I guess that’s a topic for another thread for those who care enough…This thread is about Emory-main v Wash U. [/quote]

Emory's Oxford College in Oxford, GA, isn't an independent, four-year liberal arts college and thus cannot be compared to LACs. Emory's official website (https://oxford.emory.edu/life/index.html) states that "Oxford is Part of Emory" and "As one of Emory's nine colleges and schools, Oxford embodies...." Students there would transition to Emory's Atlanta campus after two years. When DD and I attended an Emory's online info session, the two campuses were introduced in unison as entities on the same level. Oxford College is not an "afterthought" part of Emory as the Emory booster here would want you to believe because it "drags" down the school in her mind.[/quote]
We know, but did you know Oxford College has its own admissions office? Emory is not like Northeastern or Umich where if you dont get into one college they place you into another. We're not applying to Oxford College so we're only talking about Emory College. Glad you can keep up. [/quote]

Do US News and other rankings consider Emory College by itself excluding Oxford, or do they consider Emory University as a whole? Each time I see Oxford on a ranking, that's the one in UK. Is Northeastern ranked separately, one for the Boston campus and the other for London start?[/quote]
They only consider Emory College. [/quote]
