Oxford Scholars: The Real Deal?

<p>The website about Oxford Scholars is very vague on the non-monetary benefits of the scholars program. If anyone currently attends or knows the answers to my questions, I would love some input here!</p>

<p>What are the benefits of the scholars program? Do you get a special scholars dorm? Are there special scholars events or classes? Or is it just a monetary thing?</p>

<p>after moving to the emory college campus after two years, do oxford scholars join together with emory scholars (go on scholars retreats together, etc)?</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure that they do.</p>

<p>The scholars do not have special classes. They do go on retreats together although I don't know if Emory scholars go with them on specific trips. Being a scholar is more for the financial benefit they get from being a scholar. My friend at Oxford who got a 1590/1600 chose to come here over Brown because she liked it better and got a full ride through the scholars program.</p>

<p>The Oxford scholars do get fully integrated with the Emory scholars once they switch campuses. I can't for the life of me remember if the Oxford Scholars also came on the retreats (a once-a-year retreat to a beautiful state park, where we all stayed in cabins or the lodge, and ate fantastic food.) </p>

<p>General scholars perks that we had on the main campus (that I imagine are also for the Oxford campus) are that we would be reimbursed for tickets to cultural activities (and those were pretty broadly defined.)</p>
