  • Dec-21-2011 I am a current student here

    Currently, I am attending Oxford College. Albeit the small size, I actually find Oxford quite entertaining. It's extremely homely and you're able to quickly make friends. There are a myriad of clubs and many ways to get involved. Also, because it is a two year college (before you transfer to main campus), once you are a sophomore, you automatically become the seniors of the school. At first, Oxford may seem a bit boring, but don't be fooled by the peaceful campus; students find many ways to have fun...

    Emory's known for some of its traditions on campus like Songfest and other dorm to dorm activities. Atlanta itself is an awesome place to be. The location of Emory is pretty much the perfect college atmosphere - nice shops, good nightlife, and overall environment.

    I absolutely love my Emory experience. Sure there have been times when I've been absolutely fed up with classes and overwhelmed by meetings and group projects, but it's college. If you're not busy, what are you doing? But even with all that work, there is AT LEAST one thing every week that is fun and relaxing put on by either the college or one of our MANY student organizations. And, if by some miracle there isn't anything you feel like doing on campus, there's always a shuttle to take you almost anywhere you may need to go as a freshman without a car. If you want to learn more, watch our music video Emory Anthem on YouTube! But you might not get all the jokes unless you come…? :)
