@bernie12 Thanks for the advice, I realize that getting a degree from Emory will not guarantee me a job. The reason why I was staying away from public schools is because of the out of state tuition. I’m In State at UW Madison and have reciprocity with UM Twin Cities. I was hoping that Private Schools (like Emory) would cover most of my tuition because of my financial aid status. If you could recommend some private schools IN ADDITION to what you initially had in mind, that’d be wonderful. I completely agree that a public school (like Wisconsin Madison) would be safer if I want to change my major and because they are strong in several different areas. Do you think Wisconsin is a reach, target, or safety for me? Finally, private schools like Emory have smaller class sizes, and I really value being able to talk to the professor if I don’t understand something in class, so a class taught by a TA with 400 people in it isn’t ideal, but I should be fine regardless. Thanks again!
