Great classes from day one We introduce first-year students to our way of thinking right away with First-Year Seminars. They’re small (most fewer than 20 students) and interdisciplinary, and their topics connect to the world around us. Plus, each one is designed by its professor, making for a unique curriculum and dynamic teaching.

And our Nature of Evidence curriculum—which spans all majors—will train you to use evidence as you learn, leading to highly developed reasoning and informed problem-solving skills.

Emory was founded on the Oxford campus more than 180 years ago. It’s where a small-town college shaped a generation of leaders before moving to Atlanta and becoming a full-fledged university. Grounded in this history, today Oxford College is known for its excellent teaching by faculty who become mentors, extraordinary leadership opportunities for first- and second-year students, challenging and innovative curriculum, and close-knit student body. It’s where you’ll get the best of both worlds—the resources of a major research university along with the benefits of a small liberal arts setting.

The places you will go After your first two years at Oxford, your next stop is Emory’s Atlanta campus, where you’ll join the rest of your class to complete your studies in Emory College, Goizueta Business School, or the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing. Most Oxford students are very familiar with the Atlanta campus before they arrive as juniors, where they continue to stand out as leaders inside and outside the classroom. We make sure the academic and residential transition is seamless.

DETOUR TOWARD the unexpected

There’s more than one way to learn Who’s to say that you can’t have fun, make great friends with your classmates—and professors—and still learn at the same time? At Oxford, you can. That’s because our community values closeness and friendliness as well as the serious pursuit of knowledge. Classes are small (86% have fewer than 30 students) and teaching is exemplary. You won’t find garden-variety here.

Learn and do more Teachers and students are collaborators in learning at Oxford. Courses that prompt students to think differently or act differently—doing rather than passively listening—are the norm. Students find professors easy to approach. As a result, they jump right into learning—readily connecting with their professors and classmates, engaging with the readings and classwork, and speaking up in class.
