Visited Emory last week for the open house held on Friday 4/18 and we came away with very positive feelings. Our daughter found herself in the position of deciding between Emory, which was really one of her reaches and Pepperdine U, her absolute first choice for as long as I can remember. The obvious choice, of course, is Emory. We wanted her to see that for herself first-hand and she made her decision this morning. Emory! I think that once she saw the campus, spoke with potential classmates and got a look at Atlanta, she found it a little easier to let go of Pepperdine. While Pepp offers excellent academics, a more conservative leaning campus life and one of the most beautiful campuses I've been on (all important to her) Emory's Business School ranking and potential opportunity won out. We are very happy that she can now "relax" and study for her AP exams. (Pepperdine's food and view were better though!!)
