Explore Emory and its resources   Emory University is excited to connect with your students, their families, and advocates like yourselves! This fall, students can engage with Emory in a variety of ways, including in-person, virtually, and through special programming. We strive to shape a class that represents the breathtaking diversity of our world, including that of all socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds; to create a community where students aren’t just existing in a diverse community, but one in which students engage intentionally in diversity.  Options include: In-person visits Virtual sessions Inside Emory Admission Blog In addition, interested prospective seniors can also participate in our CORE Program, beginning August 2022. The CORE Program is designed to support the recruitment of talented, high-achieving high school seniors who are either first-generation college students and/or from underrepresented cultural or socioeconomic backgrounds.   Consider CORE for your students     Emory expands its no-loans financial aid program   Emory University will eliminate need-based loans as part of undergraduate students’ financial aid packages, replacing them with institutional grants and scholarships beginning this fall for the 2022-23 academic year.

Fenves will rename campus spaces and professorships honoring Robert Yerkes, a psychologist who vigorously supported eugenics, and L.Q.C. Lamar, who was a staunch defender of slavery. “Since joining Emory in 2020, I’ve engaged in many discussions about the history of our university. Our knowledge of who we are as an institution comes from questioning and learning,” Fenves wrote in the letter. “Each generation brings new meaning to a narrative that is continually being evaluated and written.”   View Changes   Lupe Alfonso Senior Assistant Dean Office of Undergraduate Admission Email: lupe.alfonso@emory.edu Website: https://apply.emory.edu/index.html       Cappex.com, LLC 2445 M Street NW, Washington, DC, 20037 US
