Emory University Top Questions

Describe the students at Emory University.

ELAINE

We are a small diverse group and each of us brings a unique view to the learning experience.

Lauren

Every type of student is here. I think I have changed a lot in college, and I've always found friends easily. If you can imagine a stereotype about a student, s/he goes here. I think most students wear pretty casual clothes to class. We value our sleep! Students generally claim to be pretty left, but I've found that the average student is pretty moderate. The average student is probably from Atlanta, New York, or Philadelphia, is pre-med, and a Democrat but honestly all types are represented. I think there is probably a stronger community among those who don't fit the typical mold. We have an interesting distinction of being a non-Southern school in the South, if that makes sense.

Deborah

Most of my classmates are friendly and helpful. Students tend to get very stressed out and anxious due to the competitiveness of the school. However if you actively seek out help, students are willing to help. Most of the students tend to be from the upper class so their social acttivites are costly at times. I personally cannot go out all the time or eat out a lot whereas they can.
