Private university in Atlanta, GA known for business and pre-med. Founded in 1836, the Goizueta Business School and pre-med track at Emory benefit from the affiliation with Emory Healthcare, one of the largest academic health systems in the Southeast. Atlanta is also home to the CDC, giving public-health-focused students unusually direct access to research and internship opportunities. Beautiful campus, a strong alumni network, and the Emory Advantage and Woodruff Scholars programs supporting need- and merit-based aid.
