Yes, I know someone who received scholarship funding and was URM. Does this mean something?
anyone in acceptance range get accepted already?
interviewed 1/15, accepted today, good luck to everyone!
Oh god I interviewed then too. Now I'm gonna be obsessively checking my email all day.
Congrats JDH!! And yah I did too hahah...I'll be doing the same 🙁
We'll probably have to wait til next week now, since it's so late in the afternoon. They're probably done sending them for the day.
True, but it seems normal for Tulane. If you scroll back through the thread, youll see that ppl who interviewed on the same day got acceptances like 2 weeks apart
Does anyone know how many total Tulane accepts including waitlists?

It's been officially six months since I submitted my app here. At one point I was hopeful about the silence but now it's clear that my application was never read. 🙁
Interviewed 1/15. Accepted this morning!!!!! Dreams do come true

Nope. Just a play on my last name.
Yah I get acceptance range too. Stinks. The letter said that the "great majority" are put in acceptance range. Do you think this is actually true, or just their way of tryna soften the blow haha
I have no idea. I thought I'd heard somewhere that you had a better than 50% chance of being accepted after interviewing but who knows. Plus if they were interviewing close to 600 people than even if they accepted 250 then technically the majority are in the acceptance range I guess.
the 50% figure includes waitlist movement.
Hope everyone in NOLA had a safe and fun Mardi Gras!

from tulane "However, most movement from this category will not occur until after we have completed interviews in February with the peak activity occuring during the month of May."
I want to make a new support thread for those who fell in love with Tulane/New Orleans but were placed on the acceptance range list.

Does anyone know when Tulane's last interview date is? Still silent here but hopeful I can eke out a last-minute interview.
Any early February interviewees hear back???
No one say yes.
Congratulations! Did you hear via email?
Yes, by email! My portal is also updated with an additional tab "admissions offer"
The only clickable link on the financial aid site is still the form from last year 🙁
I was under the impression they didn't tell us this.
I believe the acceptance range is unranked, per the email.
The message on the financial aid page stating that the outside contractor is late with their forms has disappeared and the form is now a clickable link, but still doesn't work. Gave them a call and they said maybe by next week. I'm glad these aren't really important, or whatever.

Both my host and student interviewer said that the only negative of Tulane is that they, like the rest of NOLA, have a "it'll get done when it gets done" attitude and they'll do stuff like randomly change the location of an event an hour before it starts, hahaha.
I guess this is to prepare us
True story. This is a blessing and a curse. It gets frustrating when you want/need things done by a certain time. But it also gives you a good deal of flexibility with deadlines, elective rotations, etc.
As in, rarely is something really due by the original deadline. It's more like a guideline.
Forms are up now!
Anyone else still being redirected to the home screen after trying to sign on to Gibson? Any advice on how to fix it? 🙂
I don't think Gibson is going to be active for us until sometime in March, if I remember from an earlier email.
