Decatur Apartments: Hit The Ground Running

Author : Peter Gitundu


         


Decatur, GA, is a small college town outside of Atlanta. It is quaint, with an intelligent culture and beautiful tree-lined roads. Many students and staff of Emory University, which is located here, remain long after their graduation, working in the community and at the university. It is a wonderful place to rent an apartment, with affordable prices and solid job prospects. But if you are planning to relocate you should spend some time researching the school's history. Just so you know your stuff when asked by a local.

It was chartered as Emory College 1836, opened 1837 at Oxford. It became Emory Univ. in 1915 and in 1919 moved to Atlanta. In 1929, Emory-at-Oxford, a two-year junior college, was opened at the original site of the university; the junior college was renamed Oxford College in 1964. The university's additional facilities include Emory Univ. Hospitals and Eye Clinic, the Yerkes Regional Primate Research Center, the Carter Presidential Center, and a cooperative program with the National Laboratories in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.

Emory University is known for demanding academics, outstanding undergraduate education in the arts and sciences, highly ranked professional schools and state-of-the-art research facilities. Emory encourages students to create their own experiences. Top faculty are accessible and committed to teaching and fostering undergraduate research in the sciences and humanities. 

At Emory, students have four options for their undergraduate education. Entering freshmen can apply to Emory College, which offers a liberal arts education within the heart of a major research university. Students also can apply to Oxford College where students spend the first two years on Emory's original campus 38 miles east of Atlanta. Oxford offers a small-college setting with the same academic strengths, innovative teaching and unique opportunities for leadership. As juniors, students continue from Oxford to the Atlanta campus. As juniors, students can choose from more than 70 majors in Emory College. 

They can also apply to the renowned Goizueta Business School to earn a bachelor of business administration. Students who aspire to a nursing career can earn their degree at the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing, one of the nation's top private nursing schools.
