About
Oxford College of Emory University is best known for its unique two-year residential model on Emory's historic founding campus, where first- and second-year students build a strong liberal arts foundation before automatically transitioning to the Atlanta campus to complete their bachelor's degrees. The college is highly regarded for its rigorous pre-professional pathways, particularly in the sciences, pre-health, and business, which benefit from exceptionally small class sizes and direct undergraduate research opportunities rarely available to underclassmen.
