Looking at the colleges at the title, which one is harder to get into undergrad? I think Emory is, but idk. Give me average GPAs, SAT/ACT. Thanks
You can’t apply directly to Goizueta. You can to Stern. If you are deadset on business (and can pay), Stern ED makes sense.
Stern lists their freshman acceptance rate as 13%. Median SAT scores are a 1470 (out of 1600). Oddly, they don’t offer their average GPA.

As PurpleTitan already mentioned, you have to transfer into Goizueta’s BBA program from Emory or Oxford Colleges. The average SAT score was a 1377 (out of 1600), and the average college GPA was a 3.64. They don’t list overall acceptance rate.

Why are you asking? Stern is going to be the only sure bet for a college-bound high school senior, since you know at the start that you are in while at Emory you have to keep your grades up for two years and apply afterwards. With that said, the average SAT score at Goizueta seems pretty much in line with the average SAT score for Emory and Oxford overall. A 3.6 average doesn’t really provide the range of acceptable GPAs, but a reasonably motivated college student could achieve a 3.4-3.5 by paying attention and doing good work. What I mean by this is that at Goizueta, it seems like the hardest part is actually getting into Emory (or Oxford) as a freshman.
Stern is harder to get into than Emory. This year the acceptance rate was around 11%, while Emory was around 24%. It’s not really that difficult to transfer into Goizueta once you get into Emory.
Given the choice, I’d go with Stern for its NYC location and the fact that you get directly admitted to the b-school.
I believe that Stern ED is much easier to get in to than Stern RD, though.
