<p>Letters of Rec and Essays will be strong</p>

<p>These are both top schools i would like to attend, but i can't decide where i have the best shot at getting into, help?</p>

2

<p>Stats look pretty good for both- doesn’t Gtown require 3 SAT subject tests? I know that they are not required at Emory, so I’d make sure you have the subject test issue addressed.</p>

3

<p>oh yeah i forgot to add that, i have 730+ in both Bio, Math 1, and US History :slight_smile: I forgot the exact numbers</p>

4

<p>Since ED is binding you should try and visit both schools if you have not already. This may help you decide.</p>

5

<p>Do Georgetown have ED or only EA?</p>

<p>Emory ED: Low match
Georgetown EA: Match</p>

6

<p>I have visited both schools, and i love them both! I love them ARGH :(</p>

7

<p>which one do i have better chances of getting fin aid?</p>

8

<p>anyone? financial aid?</p>

9

<p>Georgetown’s fin-aid is “meets full need” but is strictly need-based.</p>

10

<p>I’m sorry i don’t understand what you mean, i understand that it is need-based but “meets full aid” and what about Emory? I mean I plan on being able to receive atleast 33% from the school i go to, 33% i handle, and 33% from parents, so in that case?</p>

11

<p>Georgetown doesn’t have ED. So theoretically you could apply to Emory ED and Georgetown EA and see what happens…</p>

12

<p>yeah, i ment either Georgetown EA, Emory EA or jut Emory ED, oops</p>

13

<p>Your pretty solid, Good luck.</p>

14

<p>which one do you suggest from fin aid? and i will most likely end up doing undergrad at emory and then grad at Yale or GT</p>

15

<p>Anyon? Fin aid?</p>
