BC, Emory, Georgetown

My group has juniors from all three, and I went to one of the above. Go where you fit in the best, but have preference towards Emory or Georgetown. At all three you’ll still need to work hard in school and network.

Not sure what your financial situation is but would also keep that in mind. A full ride to BC might be better than paying full sticker at Emory or Georgetown - something you’ll need to figure out for yourself (and with family)

This post is insightful for me as well. I applied to transfer to BC and Emory. I’ll hear back in the next 2 months.

Emory undergrad. If you apply to Emory ED, you can also select the Oxford campus. Has completely different admissions team, but you’re considered for both schools. It provides a good safety option.

Campus life isn’t for everyone and it’s abt 45min from ATL campus. Academics are completely same. Might have to briefly explain wtf Oxford is and why u chose it (always spin it positively), but there’s kids who go on to top EB/BB even in NY

Georgetown doesn't do early decision, only early action (as far as I know)

For overall general prestige Emory= Georgetown> BC(not based on finance recruiting but rankings and whatnot). For IB Georgetown> Emory> BC. For consulting Emory= >Georgetown>BC. There is very strong consulting recruiting at Georgetown and Emory but at least at MBA level Emory is up there for consulting. There's a lot of healthcare consulting recruiting. BC might have similar placement to Emory but the confounding variables are a lot more IB gunners and its in the Northeast. Emory is first and foremost a pre-med school that's where the brains of Emory are but business is very well respected and has picked up a lot in recent years. Placing into IB is very easy and its king in the south along with Duke, UNC, UVA, and Vanderbilt. BC is larger and has somewhat less general prestige along with all kids gunning for competitive Northeast spots. Top level EB and UMM PE placement is surprisingly strong at Emory. With all 3 options Georgetown will give you the best shot at IB but it doesn't have ED so if you want a safer bet I would consider Emory. However if you're like I want the absolute best then EA Georgetown(EA doesn't really give a boost) and RD the other 2. The only thing about RD is its insanely competitive and you probably will have a very hard time at Emory and Georgetown. BC had like a 16% overall acceptance rate this year, Emory(main campus) was at 10.6% overall(8-9% RD), and Georgetown was 12%. 

I have absolutely no dog in this fight.

That being said, we gotta make 2 things clear to these college kids dickriding Emory:

• NYC placement >>>>>>>>>>> Anywhere in the South

My team's selling a big ATL-based company rn. Every deal team that baked off for it was from CA / NYC. Enough said.

• No one cares about rankings. Everyone has heard of Gtown. No one gives a fuck about Emory. I didn't know it was in ATL until today LOL. I acknowledge I'm a dumbass, but there are a lot of dumbasses who could be your foot in the door.

Unless you're from the South, don't go to Emory. I'd rather pull for a grinder out of the SEC than someone who went to 'the Harvard of the South' lmao
