Dear Lena, Creating a stellar applicant pool is really a partnership between the Office of Admission and high school counselors. We hope the information in this email will help you understand even more what types of students we think are a great fit and how we determine that. What do we look for?  Academic accomplishments are important, but so are the personal qualities of each applicant. Emory students are intellectually curious, collaborative, and civically engaged. They’re the type of student who, when a subject catches their attention, will learn as much about it as they can. That inquisitive spirit follows them here, especially in choosing a major. About 50% of our students double major, often in unusual combinations that span the humanities, arts, and sciences. Each class is different, and every year we approach crafting the incoming classes for Emory College and Oxford College anew. The majority of our applications are reviewed using a committee-based evaluation (CBE) model.

Or it does not have many AP courses. Or it grades differently from the county next door. Please assure your students that we consider the curricular opportunities offered within the context of their school when reviewing their applications.   HOW WE REVIEW APPLICATIONS  We don't track demonstrated interest The likelihood that a student would enroll if admitted does not factor into to our decision making, and as such we don’t look for “demonstrated interest.” We know that not all students have the financial resources or opportunity to visit all the schools that interest them.

We look for students eager to take advantage of the vast array of resources found at Emory and in Atlanta in order to prepare them for their lives and impact. Thank you for all you do to support students in their plans after graduation.
