I even put this school on my commonapp account as schools i would be applying to, but in the end of the day, just didnt bother, im not big on going to school in the south(duke is diff i didnt get a south feel when i visited), and they're big on interest so a kid like me would have to visit almost which i wouldnt spend the money doing.

I turned in everything really early, and I accidentally used the 08-09 FAFSA, because it was the only one available at the time. By the time they told me, they said they would put me behind people who were "on time." Which isn't really fair because the only reason I turned it in so early was because I was doing it with Questbridge, and they had a deadline. So now I'm wait-listed.

I don't feel very strongly about Emory. The only reason I applied to schools in Atlanta was because it would be nice to go to college near my uncle, aunt and cousin.

Great school, would probably be happy to be here. Nice campus, good environment, good social scene

I went to Oxford College. It was much easier to get in. After two years I was automatically admitted to Emory College.
