[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i would 100% pick Emory. We visited Cornell and just found it to be super depressing. The city isn't charming (tons of vape shops, even obvious addicts wandering around etc) the campus is pretty poorly kept up, the kids looked unhappy and intense, the weather was crummy. 
We really, really wanted to like Cornell as there was a major that my DC was interested in but it was just such a disappointment in these other ways. Your impression mileage may completely vary but we literally visited a second time to see if our impressions were wrong on trip number one.[/quote]

It depends on if your kid wants from a college campus experience or not Emory is great for Atlanta but doesn’t have the parties and collegiate atmosphere that most kids want.

Most kids are used to dumpy downtown college towns.

My Cornell freshman had a rocky start first semester but absolutely loves loves the school now. Has amazing friends, challenging classes, unreal activities and a very very active social life.

Do an overnight in both places - if your kid is focused on social fit. Have kid reach out to kids they know on campus.[/quote]
Atlanta is more of a party city than Vegas, only Miami compares. It's easy to have a great time at Emory. [/quote]
