Emory University- Emory College of Arts and Sciences

(Atlanta, GA)

Emory University is a private liberal arts school in one of the nation's most vibrant cities.
Ranked 17th among national universities by U.S. News and World Report in 2010, it produces more research than any other Georgia university and offers degrees ranging from the arts and sciences, business, law, theology and the health professions.

But that's not all Emory has to offer. His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama serves as Presidential Distinguished Professor, and the University is a leading institution for the study of Tibetan philosophy and religion.

Students enjoy exploring the many traditions and secrets of the Emory community, as well as choosing from hundreds of student groups, like the popular Volunteer Emory, which contributed to the university receiving the 2008 Presidential Award for General Community Service.

Two out of five undergraduates study abroad, and three out of four of all its students receive financial aid. Find scholarships from Emory University with Zinch today.
