<p>EMORY’S DEADLINE EXTENSION WAS NOT AN INTERNAL DECISION. ALL !!! COLLEGES IN GEORGIA EXTENDED THEIR DEADLINES because of the weather.</p>
<p>Due to unprecedented snow and ice in Atlanta, Emory University has temporarily closed. We realize this winter weather has affected most of the nation, leading to school closings, power outages, and issues with the processing of electronic documents.</p>
<p>As a result, we have elected to postpone the Regular Decision deadline for Emory University until February 1st. Adjusting the deadline should provide you and your high schools with some extra time to complete and submit application materials.</p>
<p>and EMORY DID NOT EXTEND THE DEADLINE BECAUSE THEY WANT TO LOOK MORE SELECTIVE. that’s really stupid because seriously competitive applicants would not even apply after the deadline. so why would they waste their time reading applications that they know will not be worth it.</p>
