<p>What sets Emory apart from UMich, Washington U, Northwestern and Vandy? Why should a student come here instead of the others? Or why not? I've gotta figure out where to use ED, or basically where I want to go most...</p>
<p>Comments on social life most appreciated.</p>
<p>This is on the boards for all 5 schools</p>
<p>Thanks a lot</p>
<p>hey since i applied to all i can help a little. first for example there is ahuge difference between umich and the others. umich is much bigger so do u prefer attention from ur professors and pretty much seing kids that u know walking around campus or do u want to be one of a huge crowd and not really known throughout. the two that are most similar are washu and emory. both also are not big on sports remember emory does not even have a football team and their sports are d3. northwestern and vandy particualry northwestern are much bigger on sports. also northwestern is prob the most selctive of them all although they are all pretty close. vandy meanwhile has the most southern atmosphere while emory which is still in atlanta has many new yorkers, flordians, jews, and jappy kids. rmemeber applying to ed is not mandatory for any. also some of the schools including washu and emory have an ed2. hope that helps.</p>
