<p>Accepted! I didn’t think I would be.
How do you guys feel about Oxford College?
Is it a weird program? How is it at the beginning of your junior year when you start classes at Emory and everyone from the first two years at Emory already knows each other? Is there a certain stigma about Oxford in the Emory community? I don’t know much about it. I guess I will go visit soon though.</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone accepted!!</p>
<p>^I’m wondering the same. I don’t know if I’ll get to visit though.</p>
<p>During the sophomore year, students at Oxford are given advice, by their academic advisors on their major and stuff that help create a smooth transition to Emory. Now this is what I gather from the viewbooks that the school has given me and the website. I’ve visited the college, and it’s really good. to sundress, from what i’ve read from the viewbooks, the students at Oxford get along quite well with the students at Emory. If this is true or not, i don’t know, you might have to ask an Oxford continuee about this one, like i said, i just got this info from a viewbook :|</p>
