@collegestu816 : be very careful with the interview chancing because if there are almost 7,000 scholar applicants again, that is going to be a problem no matter how amazing anyone looks on paper. Again, it usually to pull people away for near peers and even top Ivies, however many of the people with stats like hers who get into Ivies EA or later don’t interviewed for some reason. I think the OP is amazing and would be happy to have her at Emory, but I can only pray that they give her a chance. Her best chance is if application numbers for both admissions and the scholarship program return to normal levels (as in the “ebola bump” disappears if it was the thing responsible for the increase), somewhere in the 17-18k range. Another chance would be if their efforts to grow the scholarship fund have paid off and thus they can afford to interview folks and distribute more scholarships.
