[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]JHU and Emory are about the same reputation to most people.[/quote]

GA residents should utilize their two top public options. Excellent value. [/quote]

Agreed.  Much better value.[/quote]

If they can get into GA Tech or UGA. Not everyone can. [/quote]

If they can get into Emory they likely can. The publics are way better bang for the buck. [/quote]

i think they realize this. in state yield for emory is only 40%[/quote]

Emory's two year college/community college is a great way to open access to students who otherwise would not be able to attend. Once they demonstrate they can do the work, Emory lets them move to the 4 year campus. This takes a page from public colleges like UCF, Penn State, UConn etc.

Emory-Oxford students’ stats are almost identical to the stats of students on Emory’s main campus. They can do the work. [/quote]
This for a back door, its probably the hardest backdoor in  the world. Harder admit than Barnard. [/quote]

436/2900 = 15% yield.  Literally almost no one wants to be there. Meanwhile you have this:

76% of the class were in top 10% of class rank and only 70% for Oxford.  Emory/Oxford has never enrolled the top students and it never will.

Simple solution to your rant. Don’t send your kid to Emory or Emory-Oxford or BC or Wake or Tulane or NYU or whatever other school raises your blood pressure. Send your kid to your state flagship or to HYSPM or WASP and live happily ever after. [/quote]
