We walked around a lot before our tour & were totally lost and every student we spoke with was super friendly. A few came over to us and asked if we needed help. I was very impressed with this. [View Full Report]

There weren't a whole lot of students about when I visited, but those that I saw were as friendly as any. [View Full Report]

Disclaimer: I am currently attending this university. Nearly everyone is friendly, at the cafeteria I can sit down with random strangers and strike up a conversation. [View Full Report]

The statistics say that diversity exists grearly but it really doesn't. It seemed to be 50/50 white and east asian to me! (a few other races here and there). Everyone seemed to be friendly though [View Full Report]

The tour guides and whatnot would get a 4, but its kind of their job to be friendly...The regular students got a 3 to a 4, sometimes friendly, sometimes just minding their own business. [View Full Report]

Most Of The Students Were Wonderful But They Tended To Stick Very Close To Their Friends After They Said Hello...Which Made It Very Awkward For A Visitor. [View Full Report]

Not many students around bc of summer. The tour guide was a student herself but not very interesting, but did a good job explaining the school. [View Full Report]

The students walking around campus were not warm and welcoming. No one said hi to me, no said thank you when I held doors open for them, and my presence wasn't even acknowledged. [View Full Report]

No one spoke without being spoken to. Even when they did speak, everyone was very terse and uninterested in me as a prospective student. Everyone was walking very fast and just into their own thing. [View Full Report]

All of the students seemed very happy to help. In fact, I walked up to a random group of people to ask how they liked it, and they were happy to talk about their experiences. [View Full Report]

Everybody seemed upbeat and happy. I met with sports players and they really seemed to love Emory. [View Full Report]

The campus and students felt very cold. Nobody was talking, smiling, or walking together. When I was walking to the admission meeting, I had a girl stop me and say don't come here-that was a red [View Full Report]

The lobby hosts were very personable and were encouraging us to ask any type of question. All were very enthusiastic about Emory and how terrific it is. [View Full Report]

Everyone who I came in contact with was extremely friendly. There wasn't a lot of people on campus, but those who I did come across were very courteous and helpful. The tour guide was really cool [View Full Report]

The students seemed relatively nice, but not quite as much as students at say, a midwestern LAC. Very nice though, they all seemed pleasant and happy. [View Full Report]

They were very helpful (see overnight visit)! They actually made eye contact (unlike my Cali school) and overall seemed to be fairly mature. [View Full Report]

Besides our friendly guide, the rest of the campus population seemed a bit drab and dismal. No one was rude, but no one made any effort to say hello. [View Full Report]
