Emory vs. USC...

<p>Come on guys, what do you think?</p>

<p>I have a half tuition scholarship from USC and I'm from the SoCal area like 40 miles North of Los Angeles. Emory is my outta-state option, seems like a great one, but what do you think of this comparison?</p>

<p>Looking to go pre-med. I do like big sports, I think SC would be cool cuz of Trojan family, sports, but I heard Atlanta is an amazing place and everyone seems to just LOVE Emory.</p>

<p>Hey, I live in Atlanta and got accepted to Emory. I also got a Trustee to USC, which is my No. 1 choice. I think I could give you some insight...</p>

<p>For Pre-med, Emory is definitely a great place. You'll also get a good liberal arts education as well... And Atlanta is a good city with lots to do... but not nearly as good as LA, trust me...</p>

<p>My biggest problem with Emory was that there was no sense of being on a college campus. No excitement, or community. Its campus was very blah to me, and there didn't seem to be much school spirit. Also, the students seemed a bit too intellectual (only book smart)... there just didn't seem to be enough balance. </p>

<p>Also, no sports to get excited about at Emory...</p>

<p>honestly, you couldn't go wrong with either choice. My criticisms of Emory just come from what I want out of a college, which is probably very different (i want to be a theatre and communications major) Emory's price tag is steep w/o a scholarship. but honestly, you have good options.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
