Sent in my LOCI last week, fingers crossed!

What is the priority list and how does one get on it?

My understanding is that the priority list is largely made up of folks with stats that enable them to attend a "better" school, thus setting off Emory's YP warning bells (which is also why they've said that scholarship would likely be available to those who get in off the priority list). Then the regular wait list like a "true" waitlist, where they'll pull from it once admitted students start putting deposits down and Emory gets a better feel for how many open spots they'll have in the class. I'm on the regular list too, so if you're not on priority, you're still in good company!

Thanks for this info, Dorcas. Best of luck to all.

Out of curiosity - what event on the 8th are you referring to? I haven't heard of an event at Emory on the 8th, but I'm not on the waitlist so I was wondering if it's a waitlist only thing?

I believe it's for people on the PWL only according to the email I got.

My guess is that us getting any substantial amount of scholarship is unlikely...but this is also just what I'm thinking, so it shouldn't be taken as gospel truth

Feel free to PM me, I am at Emory from the priority waitlist.

Checking in! My first and only waitlist of the cycle. I'm trying to stay hopeful though. Emory is still a top choice.

Got an acceptance phone call today!

Congrats! Same here.

For those recently accepted, were you on the reg wait list or priority?

Priority
