lol sp1d3ysense, do you just not like Emory? just curious… if you want to aim higher than WUSTL and Emory, then you have to apply to the Ivies and very few other top schools… IMO, thats limiting yourself! You seem to think (maybe I’m wrong) that not applying to the Ivies is not aiming high enough… It’s not always like that… but to the OP, apply to all… I visited Emory and personally loved it and that’s why I’m heading off there next year. It’s a great school but so are WUSTL and the other top privates. That being said, a full ride is pretty huge… If money is going to be the problem, I honestly suggest you to take the full ride… but then again, it does not hurt to apply to Emory(Emory Advantage program if you qualify and in general, the school meets 100% of the aid) and other top schools. Good luck!
