copper,

We were at the Open house as well. In the parents meeting I asked the question “How many of the 150 accepted Emory Scholars matriculate?” The answer was 80-90. Earlier in a private meeting one of the assistant Deans told me that only about 60 Scholars a year matriculate. Even using the higher estimate, that would put the Scholars acceptant rate at 43%. These are the people offered 2/3 tuition to full cost Scholarships. Why does Emory have such a hard time getting top students to attend?
