Wake Forest vs. Emory

College Search & Selection
1

Hi, everyone!!
I am new to college confidential and I am a rising senior and currently trying to decide if I should do Early Decision at Emory or Wake Forest.
I toured both schools and love the campuses. I want to go into pre-med and love the opportunities and research available at Emory but I really like the individualization and small class ratios of Wake Forest.

If anyone has pros and cons for either school, please let me know
I would really appreciate it!!
thank you

Cost? Both schools are solid for pre-med. I would pick based upon “fit” and where you feel you will perform better because ultimately it will come down to your mainly your grades and test scores.

Wake Forest has very little merit aid, as I understand, while Emory has some. Also think about the option with Emory of doing your first two years at the Oxford LAC-like campus.
