any ideas for Why Emory?

<p>please helppppppppp!!!!! if anyone has any why emory they have used could you please send them to me, i just need an idea of what they want! thanks!</p>

<p>this essay isn’t about what admissions ppl want to hear; it’s about why YOU want to go here. the essay is simple. don’t overthink it. why DO you want to go to emory? there has to be some reason or else you wouldn’t waste your money applying. if you borrow ideas from other ppl’s essays, then your own essay will sound redundant and fake to admissions officers. visit the school, sit in on classes, etc to get an idea of why you want to come here instead of trying to get an idea from other ppl’s essays.</p>

<p>Let’s say that you want to apply to Emory because of its academic reputation. There is no doubt that friends and family will be impressed. But, is that all college is about? Let’s go further and say that you get accepted. Let’s refine this even further and say that you are rejected by four other schools with better reputations. </p>

<p>You are now faced with the decision between Emory and another “lesser” school. You know, one that is lower on the US&NR ranking. Let’s say that you have never visited Emory but you’ve been to the other school and that you liked the other school a lot. The other school offers an excellent major that interests you. The professors are caring and dedicated. The students seem energetic and they participate in a great many activities that interest you. </p>

<p>Now, ask yourself: why do I really want to go to Emory? Are their professors better? Do you think that you will come out of college as a better person? </p>

<p>Forget the ridiculous rankings. Follow your heart and write from it.</p>
