School Description
Provided by Emory UniversityEmory University's mission is to create, preserve, teach, and apply knowledge in the service of humanity.
To fulfill this mission, the University supports the full range of scholarship, from undergraduate to advanced graduate and professional instruction, and from basic research to its application in public service. While being a comprehensive research university, Emory limits its academic scope to those fields in which, by virtue of its history and location, it can excel. Hence its academic programs focus on the arts and sciences, business, law, theology, and the health professions. These disciplines are unified by their devotion to liberal learning; by cooperative interdisciplinary programs; and by the common pursuit of intellectual distinction.
The Emory community is open to all who meet its high standards of intelligence, competence, and integrity. It welcomes a diversity of ethnic, cultural, socioeconomic, religious, national, and international backgrounds, believing that the intellectual and social energy that results from such diversity is a primary asset of the University.
The University, founded by the Methodist Episcopal Church, cherishes its historical affiliation with the United Methodist Church. While Emory's programs are today entirely nonsectarian (except for those at the Candler School of Theology), the University has derived from this heritage the conviction that education can be a strong moral force in both society and the lives of its individual members.
Emory University
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaEmory University is a private research university located in unincorporated DeKalb County, Georgia near the city of Atlanta, Georgia, United States. Emory is considered one of the most prestigious universities in the United States and is often referred to as a Southern Ivy.
Emory was founded in 1836 and is named after John Emory, a popular bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church. It consists of nine academic divisions including schools of arts and sciences, theology, business, law, medicine, public health, and nursing.
History
In 1833 the Georgia Methodist Conference first contemplated the establishment of a church-sponsored manual labor school, where students would combine farm work with a college preparatory curriculum. In doing so, they planted the seed that became Emory College—and later Emory University.
Events preceding the chartering of Emory College began in 1834. That year, at a meeting of the Georgia Methodist Conference, a preacher known as "Uncle" Allen Turner suggested that Georgia Methodists should have their own college instead of supporting Randolph-Macon in Virginia. On December 18 1834, the Georgia General Assembly chartered the Georgia Methodists Conference Manual Labor School. In 1835, the school opened in Newton County, with physician and minister Alexander Means as superintendent. During the first year of operation the Board of Trustees, at the urging of Ignatius Alphonso Few, asked the Conference to expand the school into a college. Few was a Princeton-educated lawyer and skeptic-turned-Methodist who would later be elected the first president of Emory College.
On December 10 1836, the Georgia General Assembly granted the Georgia Methodist Conference a charter to establish a college to be named for John Emory, a popular bishop who had presided at the 1834 conference but was killed in 1835 from a carriage accident. In 1837, at its first meeting, the Board of Trustees accepted land belonging to and to establish both a "contemplated college" and a proposed new town of Oxford, Georgia. By 1838, Emory College began admitting students.

College Advice |
Question: What is Emory University like?Do any of you go there? What is it like around town? Is it very preppy? What do you like best about it? What do you like least about it?30 months ago
Best Answeremory is very expensive but it is worth every penny because it is a very good and prestigous university. a friend of mine is going there to become a medical scientist. she loves it and says the people there are pretty nice. emory is in atlanta (which is where i live) and it is a pretty cool city. there is always something to do whether its concerts, atlanta brave's game, shopping, falcon's game, etc). no night is ever the same in atlanta. and no, not all the people there are preppy or nerdy. like all schools people at emory still like to party and go out (trust me, my friend sure does). well i hope this helps. |
Question: University of Texas vs. Oxford College of Emory University?I am stumped about which school to choose: Either go to UT and do 4 years there in the Health Science School. or Go to Oxford college for 2 years, and get automatic admission to Emory College... I really need help soon,, Deadline is coming up thank you in advance34 months ago
Best AnswerGo to Oxford College. Emory is a better overall university. Plus it will look better in the future when someone reads your diploma and it says you graduated from Emory University. |
Question: Vanderbilt, Emory, or University of Maryland?OK, so i got into these 3 schools and I know that my ultimate goal is law school. I've visited all 3 campuses and I like all 3 about equally. Personally Vanderbilt is my favorite but only because of the sports teams (and i live in maryland so i liked the change of scenery over the terps). The real problem is Vanderbilt, after all scholarships and stuff is gonna cost me about 28k a year and Maryland is gonna run about 10k. Also I got into the Honors Humanities Program at UMD which only admits 50 a year (notice I'm really between Vandy and UMD, but I did sort of like Emory). What is the best decision here to put me in the best place for law school, Vanderbilt for the prestige and the experience or Maryland for the price? I have to admit, the ability to to pay 1/3 of the price and save that money for grad school is tempting but I also love the idea of Nashville. Any comments would be MUCH appreciated.34 months ago
Best AnswerEmory is without doubt the most respected of these schools, although Vanderbilt is also a decent school. U Md is everyone's safety school. It has basically no prestige at all. So, if you really are intent on getting into a top law school, I dont think MD can hold a candle to the other two. IF you go to MD you have to understand that you will really need to have an absolutely top GPA and recommendations coming out or you will be at some third level law school and wind up defending traffic fines and writing wills in Baltimore. |
Question: College choice for Theoretical Physics?I am interested in becoming a theoretical physicists within academia. I would like to do research into the fundamental questions about reality and perhaps do some teaching at the college level. I am interested in the philosophical side of physics as well as the math so I am interested mostly in liberal arts colleges. Which college is the better choice for this path: Furman University, Clemson University, University of South Carolina Honors, or Oxford College of Emory University?34 months ago
Best AnswerYou have a few good colleges in that list. But Emory is the clear winner -- and not just by a little. (note -- this assumes you mean the Oxford College in the Southern US, and not Oxford University in the UK). |
Question: waitlisted, what are my chances and what should i do?What should a student do who's been waitlisted to Emory University? Has anyone ever had it happen to them? What are my chances of eventually getting in? Any tips on what I should be doing? SAT: +1900 Recommendations: glowing Essays: so-so GPA: 4.2 Class rank: 1/322 APs: a couple34 months ago
Best AnswerYou're a good student. You should make sure you maintain an interest in Emory and make sure that they KNOW you are maintaining that interest. You can do this through e-mail, or you can give them a call. Even an e-mail to a professor can help--tell them you are waitlisted, but are interested in their class if you are accepted. You never know who talks. A litte story to illustrate. I was doing a bunch of graduate school interviews at a competitive university, 12 half-hour interviews in one day actually (what a nightmare), and by the time I went to my afternoon interviews, word had gotten around that it wasn't necessary to "grill me." I wasn't expecting that at all! But it turns out that professors actually do talk about students they like with other professors and administrators. So making a good impression on one person can have far reaching effects. You'll be ok. Keep your grades and your chin up. Things will be fine. Good luck! |
Question: if i go to Emory University and get my doctorate degree do i still have to go to med school?im so interested but really confused34 months ago
Best AnswerShe's correct. Ph.D and M.D. are two different degrees. (to be picky, you CAN get your Ph.D without getting a Masters in some cases.) Just to add a bit to her great summary....In the US, you can apply to attend a medical school if you have completed a Bachelors degree and taken the MCAT exam. After you compete the schooling, then you can take your board exams. Once you pass both, you would then be considered an M.D. and can practice medicine, though Residency is required before you can practice privately, I believe. |
Question: Does anyone know any specifics about Emory?Currently a sophomore looking at colleges, does anyone know any specifics about Emry university, who goes there, people with what interests, what u need to get in etc.37 months ago
Best AnswerEmory is an amazing school outside of Atlanta, GA. It's well known for premed and Business; Its business school being top 5 undergrad schools in the country. The environment is open minded, understanding, and has a decent acceptance rate despite its great academic profile. (35% for business) |
Question: where do I sign up for evening computer classes at emory university, I want an excell class?41 months ago
Best AnswerEmory runs an Evening at Emory program with short courses on various topics. You can call the Evening at Emory office at 404.727.6000 for more information. Here's a listing of Excel courses. http://www.cll.emory.edu/classes.cfm?ser=excel&submit=+Go+&pt=2 One other option. Emory's computer department runs short intensive training courses for employees. Usually one or two sessions in length. Several years ago they would reserve a spot or two in these mini-courses for Emory students for a very minimal cost...approx. $25.00. Not sure if students can still atend these at a discounted rate, but you could call and check if you were looking for a quicker/less expensive option than the one listed above. Here's a site with additional information. http://www.cll.emory.edu/it/classes.cfm?pro=1 |
Question: Can I apply to study for a year at Emory University? How much does it cost?I would like to do Anatomy Pathology and am at King's Coll, London, UK, a partner university. I would like to study/work in Atlanta when I qualify. Any advice/tips/contacts from students/lecturers would be much appreciated, including info about living there. I will contact Emory nearer the time, I hope to have an idea of the things I need to consider first. Thanks41 months ago
Best AnswerEmory has wonderful upperclass living and graduate living. It's the Clairmont Campus. It has its own olympic swimming pool, gym, and shuttle service to main campus. I assume this is where you'll be living since, most international students live there. There are two options, one is tower, where you'll share an apartment with another roomate. The other is the "apartments" where you would live with three other "flatmates" each all having a room of your own. You can live off campus, but it's a lot of hassle, since you would probably need a car there to get around the atlanta area. However, you can always work on campus. They pay pretty well beginning from $8.50/hr. depending on what you do. Most likely it'll be something easy and you'll have time to study. This is done through the financial aid office. They have to qualify you first. Again you can find their info on the website. As for information about the program, try going to the website and looking for the departments. and they should have department head, or prof. numbers and email listed. I believe school starts next week, so you should probably contact them then. Emory actually costs quite a bit. I think the tuition went up to $44,000 a year, but if you qualify (most international students do.) you'll get grants and aid. So it wouldn't be too much burden for your family. By the way, don't wait too long to contact them, you should ask all the questions now, to see if it's for you. When the time comes you'll be prepared to make a decision. They are very helpful there, especially for future students. If you consider on going, you definately need to find out about Financial Aid ASAP, they have strict deadlines. (unless you are getting scholarships from your home school.) Best of luck to you, if you come to Emory, You'll enjoy the environment~~I really enjoyed my time there~~ |
