"I chose Emory because everything about it was a perfect fit for me.  The campus is beautiful, the location is warm, the academics are challenging and the sports programs are amazing.  When visiting the school, the friendly and welcoming environment really drew me in, and I knew this was the school I wanted to attend.  But my decision was ultimately made by the opportunity to have a spot on Emory's volleyball team which is comprised of enthusiastic coaches and a great group of girls."
