<p>beefs,</p>

<p>Everything looks reasonably solid; however, you stated, "APPLYING TO ENGINEERING".</p>

<p>Are you aware that Emory does not have an Engineering department? It does have a Biomedical Engineering program in conjunction with Georgia Tech, as well as a "dual-degree" program in Engineering with Georgia Tech, whereby you can earn a baccalaureate degree from Emory and a B.S. degree from Georgia Tech. This is a 5-year program, though.</p>

<p>Any reasons why Emory doesn't have an engineering program?</p>

5

<p>because georgia tech is right down the road...liberal arts education</p>
