Many ECs mentioned on Resume.

I am applying to be in the business school for the last two years of school, so I won’t be studying liberal arts anymore. Does anyone know if I will get to keep my scholarship?

Sup yall (practicing southern slang lol)! Got accepted to Oxford!! Waitlisted for Emory, but I think I fit better at Oxford anyway.
…wildly anxious over here, and I think the closer-knit atmosphere will help me transition.

MOST IMPORTANTLY: Has anyone visited Oxford and Emory? I only had the chance to visit Emory, and I was hoping someone could compare the cultures, campus feel, dorms, etc. Since I can’t visit with the epidemic going on :confounded:
