Oxford College is a two year college that’s just like forty miles or so away from Emory. It’s not “for people who couldn’t get into Emory.” Some people who are admitted to both choose Oxford. True, admissions to Oxford are “easier” than admissions to Emory, but that doesn’t mean it’s for the people who didn’t get in to Emory. Once you finish your two years at Oxford you head straight to Emory to finish your education. It’s basically just a smaller option for some students.
