Deciding whether to interview at Emory

I was accepted to a well-reputed school where I can envision myself being very happy...and it also has a reputation for giving out scholarship money. I was recently invited to interview at Emory, but going there would mean spending several hundred more dollars on airfare, etc., plus taking more time off from work. Any input from current medical students as to whether it would be worth it to visit Emory in this situation? Anything that really stands out about Emory besides its proximity to the CDC?

I'm in the exact same position! I'd be very interested in hearing a response to these questions, too...

I am under the impression that Emory is not very generous with financial aid which could be a minus. Correct me if I am wrong.
