<p>What's the difference between Emory U and the College? Are the entrance requirements different? Are they separate entities or does the College come under Emory University. I know someone who applied to Emory University but got accepted to Emory College and not the University. Is the College as pestigous as the University?</p>
<p>Emory University consists of several colleges. Emory College is one of them.</p>
<p>The college is an entity of the University.....</p>
<p>It is not possible to apply to the University, you have to apply to an indidvidual college.</p>
<p>Emory University is comprised by a number of undergraduate- and graduate-level schools and affiliated research centers. For undergraduate studies, there are 4 pertinent schools:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Emory College (the primary undergraduate division at Emory University); </p></li>
<li><p>Oxford College (a 2-year college, located in Oxford, GA, that has a separate application process and also has an option whereby most students matriculate in their junior year to Emory College);</p></li>
<li><p>Goizueta Business School (which Emory students can apply to after 2 years of general education at Emory College for the undergraduate business program);</p></li>
<li><p>Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing (again, Emory students can apply to after 2 years of general education while enrolled at Emory College);</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Application is made to Emory College; however, it is part of Emory University. If you are admitted, you are admitted to the College, but again, it is a division of the University – just like your arm is a part of your body. Since the College is a part of the University, its perceived prestige is equal with the University in general. However, that said, prestige is a relative attribute based in part on what you are comparing against.</p>
<p>The graduate level schools include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Goizueta Business School (btw, pronunciation of the name is roughly “goyz-SWEAT-ah”, for all of those wondering about such matters)</li>
<li>Candler School of Theology</li>
<li>Rollins School of Public Health</li>
<li>Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing</li>
</ul>
<p>In addition, there are affiliated organizations, including the Yerkes National Primate Research Center, the Carter Center, and Emory Healthcare, a comprehensive healthcare network.</p>
<p>There is also a School of Medicine, School of Allied Health (which offers a BS degree), School of Law, and a School of Arts and Sciences which offer graduate degrees.</p>
<p>dgebll,</p>
<p>Yep, I don't know what I was thinking... other than multi-tasking and trying to get work and "other distractions" done at the same time. Right you are, as usual! ;)</p>
<p>Thanks all.</p>
