The Scoop
Emory University is a private research university located in Atlanta, Georgia, known for its strong programs in business, law, medicine, and the liberal arts. With approximately 15,000 students, Emory combines the resources of a major research institution with a relatively intimate campus community. The Goizueta Business School and Emory School of Medicine are among the most respected in the country.
The campus is set in the leafy Druid Hills neighborhood of Atlanta, offering a blend of Southern charm and big-city access. Students benefit from Atlanta's status as a major business, media, and cultural hub, with extensive internship and career opportunities. Emory's emphasis on service and social justice is woven into the academic and campus culture. Admissions are highly selective, and Emory attracts students who want rigorous academics, a diverse and engaged community, and the advantages of a top research university in one of the South's most vibrant cities.
Emory's graduates are well-positioned for careers in healthcare, business, law, and public service, supported by strong career services and an engaged alumni network. The university's size allows for meaningful faculty relationships while still offering the resources of a major research institution. A campus tour with a current student is the best way to appreciate Emory's blend of Southern warmth, academic seriousness, and the energy of Atlanta.
