<p>So how many of you guys are actually going to the Essence of Emory thing? I called & it sounds pretty sweet. All expenses paid (except for the reg. fee)...sounds pretty nice. So I'm going ; is anyone else?</p>
<p>If I knew what that was I would go for sure. What is it and when did you find out about it?</p>
<p>LOLL Essence of Emory. You guys ever seen Emeril's TV show? Essence of Emeril? Man, am I the only one that finds this funny?</p>
<p>gotta love Emory.</p>
<p>Bump......</p>
<p>I am going too. I had really wanted an in-depth look and feel of Emory.</p>
<p>hey i got a q...is this the event for minoirties on april 2. . . it says that airfare is not included. . .</p>
<p>The date is approaching... Only about 9 weeks until end of school...
Still got no idea how or where to get a roommate from.</p>
<p>Btw this is Paul, a non URM who will be seen at emory next semester.
(looking for korean roommie T.T)
P.S They didn't invite me to the essence thingy T.T</p>
<p>yay im going to the essence thing, airfare paid by emory of course. is everyone who is going african and hispanic?</p>
<p>i don't know if this is the same one, but my quadmate is going during spring break to a scholarship competition at emory.</p>
<p>well I think Essence of Emory is only for blacks / hispanics.
i wonder if essence is the same time as the emory scholars thingy.
So for you guys that are going, i cant wait to see you there.</p>
<p>I have a question about "Essence of Emory."---Do the program coordinators pick us up from Hartsfield Airport, or do we have to find our own transportation from the airport to the Emory campus?</p>
<p>I have another question---Who's flying there? Is anyone taking Greyhound?</p>
<p>i'm flying. and i hope they're picking us up. it'd be sort of dumb for them to be like "make it there yourself". i don't remember exactly where it is. but if they're not, i have family there who is willing to transport me if need be. im coming from philly & i'm sure they wouldn't mind picking you up too if you need a ride.</p>
<p>hey! im coming from the philadelphia airport too! im actually from nj but i'll be flying out of philly. maybe we'll see each other on the plane!</p>
<p>cool. im flying from pittsburgh (long story) but flying back to philly. we'll definitely be on the same plane back. cool ; at least i'll know someone there.</p>
<p>jf215, essence of emory is not the same thing as emory scholars.</p>
<p>I know they're not the same thing; i said i wonder if they were the same TIME. because Emory flies the Emory Scholar finalists down for interviews & such before they make final decisions. Since I didn't apply for it, i wouldn't know ; but it seems like it would be a good time to (since people would be on spring break).</p>
<p>Going. But I haven't received anything yet. No plane tickets or schedule or roommates or anything.</p>
<p>Weird.</p>
<p>SAME. glad its not just me. where are you from?</p>
<p>dont feel bad. it's only for hispanics and african-americans</p>
<p>puzzeledlily - call them Monday</p>
<p>wogus86 - I believe that cookiemonster (or another Emory student on this board) said that they will send questionaires out asking detailed questions for the purpose of matching you with a roommate. If you're in a hurry, use CC, Learnlink, or IM to explore possible roomies.</p>
