Emory vs. Wesleyan

<p>Hey everyone, I'd just like your opinions on these two Universities.</p>

<p>I'm in NY, so Wesleyan has the advantage of proximity while Emory has the weather. I don't really know what I'm most academically interested in, but the highest probability is that I major in political science. Overall I'm politically in the center, but I have strong opinions either way. I definitely want the intimate college campus feel, but I still want there to be <em>enough</em> to make all four years a great experience. I don't really like the whole frat-boy attitude...but then again I probably won't find much of that at either college. Any thoughs on which of the two would be a better match for me? Or at least your opinions on both/either schools?</p>

<p>They're both fine schools--academically, approximately equal.</p>

<p>Wesleyan sounds more your speed in terms of atmosphere.</p>

<p>I would think Wesleyan is considered a little more highly regarded and seems like it would be generally more suited to you.</p>

<p>If you are politically in the center and your politics are important to you, Emory might be a better fit. Wesleyan leans more to the left but they have a real sense of community and there is intermingling within the various groups. Both have very good reputations.</p>
