<p>careyberry, your UW GPA is within the Emory 50%, which is 3.74-3.99, with an average GPA of 3.84. Your academic rigor seems fine. You did not mention your SAT or ACT scores, which makes it difficult to predict your chances. I do have two quick thoughts. 1) As a Puerto Rican, you should benefit from URM status. Emory has three admissions counsellors who are minority recruiters–two for Hispanic/Latino applicants. I think that you should pick one of these and email him or her to mention your interest in Emory.<br>

2) I think that you could write an interesting essay about your Brazil Missions Trip and your interest in elementary education and international relations. Good luck.</p>
