Emory University - Oxford College

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

So, my top choices until now have been Boston University and University of Miami, yet interestingly the idea of attending Emory made me change my mind. Upon doing some research I found out about the Oxford College which is commonly known as the backdoor to emory. I was just wondering, given your knowledge about Emory University - Oxford College do I have a shot at getting in?

I am a full IB Diploma Student
IBH Biology
IBH History
IBH Global Politics
IBSL Language and Literature
IBSL Math Studies
IBSL Spanish
TOK

My ACT Score is a 33 (English 33, Math 28, Reading 36, Science 33)
My GPA is like a B+ average maybe an unweighted 3.3 GPA, but I had a late ADHD Diagnosis at the end of junior year (these will be in counselor recommendations). Currently in senior year I’m doing very well getting an A/A- average in the IB (after my diagnosis).

EC:
I am the head of a club which donates to underprivileged schools in different countries
I worked at a Dentist Office
I worked at a Lawyers Office
I have done Model UN for Three Years
I was on Junior Varsity Basketball - won most spirited award
I took Guitar outside of school
I was the head of accounting and finance club in Freshman Year
I volunteered at a school close to my house
Was part of a cultural exchange program in which I hosted another student from India

So based on this and your own knowledge is Emory University - Oxford College a good match for me?

Any help would be appreciated

GPA is low for Emory, but ACT is at the higher end for applicants. However, if you plan on pursuing something related to STEM, the math subscore could hurt you. All I can say is get good recs and write good essays. Good luck!

Even for Oxford College?

I think you have a really decent chance at Emory itself, let alone Oxford! Good luck!

Thats good to hear! Thank you so much, you think that even with my unweighted GPA being 3.3 (with IB diploma) would still give me a decent chance at emory?
