Agreed. Much better value.
If they can get into GA Tech or UGA. Not everyone can.
If they can get into Emory they likely can. The publics are way better bang for the buck.
i think they realize this. in state yield for emory is only 40%
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.
This for a back door, its probably the hardest backdoor in the world. Harder admit than Barnard.
436/2900 = 15% yield. Literally almost no one wants to be there. Meanwhile you have this:
https://provost.emory.edu/planning-administration/data/factbook/admissions.html
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.
Meanwhile Barnard:

91% in the top decile of their high school class rank (for those providing a class rank)
Testing Data (for those reporting under our test-optional policy)
SAT mid-50% range: 1470-1540
Meanwhile

Emory
1500-1570
33-35
Oxford
1480- 1560
33-35
Barnard
1470-1540
32-35
nice try but you cant even use the right test scores. enrolled emory stats are here: https://provost.emory.edu/planning-administration/data/factbook/admissions.html
25th and 75th percentile is 1460 to 1550

What about the schools between HYPSM and Emory/BC/Wake/Tulane/NYU? Let's say Chicago/Washu/Vandy?
I would pay for Chicago, Wash U, Vandy. (I have one at Ivy and 2 yet to apply.) The lowest ranked private we would pay for is USC. Maybe BC, if DC wanted to go finance. We are full pay.

Hmm, well I didn’t marry a classmate. I actually found the majority of males obnoxious and/or immature. That said, I did have a group of male friends who were genuinely good guys who I am still friends with today.

Baddies?
There is a lot of UMC/UC talent at Wake. I'd imagine the same goes for the other schools (Except Emory, I don't know, seems like a nerd school but I'm speaking out of ignorance).

Vanderbilt says Emory is their peer and vice versa, but good luck to your mental illness. Also Vandy’s test scores are about 10 points higher, and they have around a 25% transfer acceptance rate, compared to Emory's 15%.

They're mentally ill, some schools make some DCUMers feral, Emory is one, UVa another, Chicago another. Emory is a T25 fixture. No one cares about the opinions here.

Stop. Emory has a junior college. It is not close to the prestige of Vanderbilt.
No, you're pulling things out of your ass. You're opinion is worse than the smelly things that come out of it. And there's nothing wrong with a junior college when its just as selective as the other college.

So Emory ( ranked 24) is peers with Tulane ( ranked 67) but not Vanderbilt ( ranked 18). Was your DC rejected from Emory pp? Or were you rejected years ago?

Because of AI and grade inflation, GPA and top decile doesn't mean what it used to. Most colleges dont even look at rank anymore, its meaningless.
