hey abby loved the video i applied to emory earlier and im def considering it.. just a few questions tho!! for atlanta weather, would u recommend packing mainly shorts vs jeans/sweats/leggings? how many jackets and layers do you normally need throughout the year or can u usually get away with just a tshirt? also, did u do anything in high school that prepared u to study neuroscience at emory?? im interested in majoring in that as well. would u say the department is pretty decent there and they set u up for internships and a job after graduation? and what kinda job are u looking into? sry that was a lot but ty for the tour this was super helpful to me! 😁
Emory University looks good. First of all, congratulations on your admission to Emory University. I am a parent of a student who is considering entering Emory. By the way, are there air conditioning facilities in the dormitory, library, and lecture room of the school (especially in the student dormitory)? And this school is in the south of the United States, and the place where the school is located in a humid area, so I have a question. How many terrible bugs (such as cockroaches) have you encountered in your room while living in a student dormitory? I wish you a happy school life. Thank you.
Hey Abby, thx for the video. Wondering if you could share a bit about your experience in neuroscience. Interested in knowing if there is any child trauma research happening on campus and how easy it is to do research as a freshman or sophomore? Thx!
I’m not sure if there is research on child trauma specifically (you may have to look on Google), but I’m taking PSYC 111 with a professor named Arber Tasimi and his lab focuses on child psychology such as moral decision making. I also participated in a research study about childhood memory! Super easy to do research! I feel like there are so many labs at Emory that it’s not hard to find one wiling to take you. I like that because it gives me the freedom to pick a research lab that i’m truly interested in. I started my freshman year :)
Hi!! I’m in my senior year and my sat score for the first round was’nt so good and due to co vid i do not think I’ll be able to get another try in :(. If I have the GPA range for Emory, should I still consider doing ED? Also how is the business department and academic rigour in the school?
hi Leisha! you should consider going test optional. The business school and pre-business track is very popular at Emory! The academic rigor is good. I feel challenged in all of my classes but there is also a lot of resources to make sure I succeed
@@abbylau4492 this boosts my confidence so much 😭 Thank you ♥️♥️♥️. I also just wanted to ask how’s the city like around Emory? I’m considering Boston as well but the environment around me too matters
@@leisha7784 I really like Atlanta! It has a lot of fun things to do and great food. The neighborhoods outside Atlanta also have great shopping malls and restaurants
Hey! Do all freshman get a separate room? And how's the business school there? is it easy to transfer from one college to the other? Btw... Love your decor! and your vid! thanks!!
nope! i only got my own room because of COVID. There are some singles available to freshmen every year but they are half the size of my dorm and are difficult to get unless you have something like a medical need. The business school is great! Our Goizueta Business School is a top 30 school (rank #26). By transfer do you mean transfer majors? We only have one “college”. It is easy to transfer for most majors! Every Emory student starts in the College of Arts and Sciences. Later on, you can apply to the Nursing school or business school and graduate from them. You don’t have to declare a major until the end of your second year.
The little pink tree is so cuteeeee - I think thats the cherry blossom/sakura tree (correct me if I'm wrong) also where did you buy it and do they have any trees of its kind or others in yellow? (if you don't mind me asking)
hi!! do you mean the little tree on my fridge? It’s a pop-up card from Lovepop (my friend gifted it to me). Lovepop has some other tree cards like lemon trees and olive trees ☺️ www.lovepopcards.com/products/cherry-blossom-pop-up-card
Hi, I’m in 7th grade right now and its probably to early to be thinking about university but what grades do you need to be excepted into Emory? I’m asking because Emory is my dream University since I’d like to become an epidemiologist when I’m older. Also what subjects should you focus on to become an epidemiologist? I understand if you don’t reply but it would be great if you did!
hi! you said that raoul hall was "the luck of the draw," so does that mean one doesn't necessarily get their first choice pick of residence hall? I'm going to be an incoming freshman in the fall, and I am interested in raoul hall!
raoul, hamilton, turman, and eagle are on the freshman quad and have the newest rooms. dobbs is the smallest/oldest but is next to the student center and middle of campus. complex and harris are also older and by the business school (harris is slightly nicer but it houses both first and second years). alabama is by cox (one of the dining halls) and has good rooms! it’s just by the clock tower so it can be a little noisy
@@michellevenegas4031 yes and no. if you have special accommodations you can request a single. otherwise, you have no influence on whether you get a double suite, regular double, triple, etc (triples are really rare. there’s a lot of suites in eagle and raoul). you can choose your roommate though! most colleges have random housing- this isn’t an emory specific thing. for second year and upperclassmen housing you can pick which room and building! it’s actually a good thing that housing is random! it prevents friend groups from all selecting the same floor / all the halls have their pros and cons. emory housing is good for the most part
Is this a good school for somebody who is planning the college choices( class of 2028.) are the people there friendly? do you have a roomie or do you share a bathroom? ( sorry for the questions btw just wanna know before i decide to come into this college lol)
yes i have a roommate this year! when i filmed this video we didn’t have roommates to prevent the spread of COVID-19. We used a communal bathroom. Some dorms have a bathroom inside their dorm (called a suite).
i would do anything to go here but my sat score was a 1050 lollll i’m gonna retake it but i don’t think i can get it high enough, congrats to u tho this is a HUGE accomplishment!!!
@@Gauttej SAT subject tests are no longer offered. they were discontinued this year. as for the general SAT test, you can choose to submit that too. Some colleges are test-optional meaning you don’t have to send your score. The amount of colleges you apply to depends on the person. It’s recommended that you have a balance of safety schools (schools you are likely to get into), target schools (schools that are within your range), and reach schools (schools above your range or have high selectivity).
@@abbylau4492 thank you so much, few doubts cleared because of your help. But you said no need of SAT scores for some colleges.... Then on what basis can we apply? Just we have to send them 9 to 12 the grade marks or what else? And how to search for the required universities.., I tried to search in Google but I don't know the individual universities list. How to find which university is good, higher or lower? Can u please send me the link to search the universities.
@@GardenTipsGuru i'm not an international student so i'm honestly not sure! but we do have the woodruff scholarship for incoming freshmen and the Dean's Achievement scholarship for second year students college.emory.edu/scholars/scholarships/woodruff-scholarship.html

How much does dorm cost for semester/ yearly? Parent asking ..🥴 💰
Hey I was wondering if you got the micro fridge that Emory rents or if you purchased it elsewhere
i got the one emory rents out! it was really convenient. they installed it before i moved in last fall
Hey Abby, do we get to choose our own residential hall in freshman year?
Did they help you loft the bed?
@@ShelleyRudge yes! i was on res life. ask the RAs/SAs when you move in :)
hi! you said that raoul hall was "the luck of the draw," so does that mean one doesn't necessarily get their first choice pick of residence hall? I'm going to be an incoming freshman in the fall, and I am interested in raoul hall!
it’s random selection! raoul is one of the newest dorms
raoul, hamilton, turman, and eagle are on the freshman quad and have the newest rooms. dobbs is the smallest/oldest but is next to the student center and middle of campus. complex and harris are also older and by the business school (harris is slightly nicer but it houses both first and second years). alabama is by cox (one of the dining halls) and has good rooms! it’s just by the clock tower so it can be a little noisy

Can we get a update vlog!
i just moved out for the semester!! but i’ll be uploading more emory content this fall :)
i would do anything to go here but my sat score was a 1050 lollll i’m gonna retake it but i don’t think i can get it high enough, congrats to u tho this is a HUGE accomplishment!!!
you got this!! practice tests and khan academy helped me a lot with the SAT. Also, Emory is test optional this fall :)
Are you allowed to have a hot water dispenser?
yes but i recommend bringing an electric tea kettle instead. i only had the big machine my freshman year because I did not have a roommate
please do more emory videos!
more coming soon :)
Hi, what is your SAT score and what books you used... Can u please help me.
i used the official SAT Study Guide (official college board) book and Khan Academy! I submitted my ACT score though.

yes! we are strong in the humanities. even those studying STEM fields will take humanities courses because we have general education requirements
@@abbylau4492 ouh tysm for the info❤️❤️
@@abbylau4492 btw can you tell me from your side that does Emory gives ample scholarships to international undergraduate students?

what dorm are you in?
raoul :)
does Harris Hall look like this?
Harris looks a little different but the rooms are about the same size. I think the biggest difference is that Raoul rooms have high ceilings!
Hiiii
