H-1B sponsorship profile: Emory University. Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, Emory University filed 1,371 Labor Condition Applications covering 1,371 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2026. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 99.1% (1,359 certified of 1,371 filed), a useful proxy for how cleanly their prevailing-wage attestations pass the Labor Department’s preliminary review before USCIS adjudication.

Compensation spread. Offered wages on Emory University’s H-1B petitions range from $39,332 at the low end to $960,000 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $101,432. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Assistant Professor (260 petitions at $216,333 avg), followed by Postdoctoral Fellow and Assistant Academic Research Scientist . H-1B salaries reported on LCAs must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the role and worksite, so the spread also tracks wage-level geography and seniority.

Geographic footprint. Emory University is headquartered in Atlanta, GA under NAICS code 611310, and places H-1B workers across 3 states, most heavily in GA, NM, MS. Combined, these signals give a granular view of how one employer uses the H-1B program, volume, approval cleanliness, wage posture, and where the jobs actually sit on the map.

Where Emory University ranks. By H-1B petition volume, Emory University is #104 of 119,880 employers nationally and #1 of 3,758 employers headquartered in GA. The gap between the two is the point: a mid-size national sponsor can still be a top-10 name in its own state's H-1B market.
