I am sure you can easily get into Oxford....and stand a decent chance at Emory college, so you wouldn't have to go to Oxford....Apply to both....

thanks, im thinking about applying to both but I applied ED to NYU which is my highest reach on my list so far.

is Emory a lot more competitive than NYU is? My brother goes to Emory and it seems a lot harder than my current dream school

Emory: yes.

Oxford: Becoming increasingly popular, so, yes, a lot of people, but nowhere near as many as Emory.
