Yes- Emory as a school has more academic prestige than NYU. However, that’s for NYU College of Arts/Sciences. NYU Stern trumps Goizueta- pretty much no one on Wall Street would refute that. NYU’s average salary coming out of undergrad is almost 5k more than Goizueta’s (look at businessweek), and that’s a pretty significant difference. Georgetown has much more prestige in the northeast, and quite frankly, it just flat-out attracts smarter students than Emory.

btw- businessweek rankings are garbage. You want the top 5 it’s Wharton/Sloan/Stern/Ross/Haas. Emory is in the 6-10 range.
