Thank you! I will forward that to my friend.

Here is a pretty good recent discussion on Oxford from College Confidential. As for prestige, any student at Oxford graduates from Emory University. Since you can now apply to both the main campus and the Oxford campus at the same time using the same application, the student bodies look remarkably similar -- and they all end up with the exact same degree.

I am asking for a friend from a different country. Not having the Greek system won't be a hardship for her child.

Thanks. No wonder nothing comes up when I searched. I spelled Emory wrong.

Does anyone know about this option? Any difference in prestige compared to going straight to Atlanta?
