The Emory Class of 2027 will arrive on campus in the fall, when Oxford will welcome another highly talented group of first year students.

Oxford College is pleased to announce the recently admitted Class of 2027, a diverse and talented group selected from the largest applicant pool in college history. More than 60% of all Emory applicants applied to both Oxford and the College of Arts and Sciences on the Atlanta campus.

Kelley Lips, assistant vice provost and dean of enrollment services at Oxford, said that having two campuses that each offer their own distinct culture and experience—all while remaining united in the same educational mission—gives the entire university broader appeal.

“[Students] can explore their interests and see which best fits their academic goals, preferences and career aspirations,” says Lips. “Students choose Oxford because of small class sizes and early research and internship opportunities. Plus, taking on a leadership position in co-curricular activities is a hallmark of the Oxford experience. No matter which campus students choose, they are learning from renowned faculty.”
