Yes, I spent an extra day too! I went on a swamp tour and plantation tour. Highly recommend if you're into that kind of thing.
Just to add, the city of New Orleans has amazing food. I walked into a convenience store and ordered a foot-long po boy that had turkey, ham, shrimp, mushroom, and cheese. I'll hopefully end up as both a Tulane medical student and a patient in their ER who has suffered 10 heart attacks

Compared to previous years, this Tulane thread is especially fond of Tulane. For those of you accepted, how many are choosing between a few schools? I'm just trying to gauge the wait-list competition.

Unless financial aid is enormous, I’ll be going elsewhere. Love the school, can’t do the price.

+1. I expect to withdraw in the spring, but I’m hesitant to do it before financial aid offers come out, just in case Tulane surprises me with a big scholarship or something.

If you love Tulane, then you can always nudge them and say hey, I gotta withdraw unless you can help me out. I talked to a guy who goes there who got a full ride by doing the above.

Seems like all October interviewees have heard back...hopefully the early November interviewees hear back soon!
hoping for some love II here before the end of 2017
Sorry to hear that. Have you done any mock interviews or gotten any feedback on your interview skills?

I’ve done a mock interview and practiced with friends, but honestly I’ve felt pretty confident about my interview skills up until now..... welp at least they’re not rejections. It just sucks to have to wait even longer for a decision haha.
where else did you interview? Just curious.
I'm also waitlisted at every school i've interviewed at 🙁 but the cycle is still running so don't lose hope
same... I understand the feeling-- it sucks. But, always remember that theres still a chance at getting accepted with a WL and that loads of people get rejected. While a WL isn't an outright acceptance its still a good thing 🙂
I haven’t seen a post interview rejection post here yet but i could be wrong
Ya that is the tricky thing with Tulane... Not really any post interview rejections
Congrats!! I interviewed 12/8 so hopefully I'll be following in your shoes soon.
Interviewed 11/9 and haven't heard anything yet. Anxiety level is peaking!
Update: Acceptance Range :/

Has anyone submitted any LOIs or updates on Tulane's portal? I thought I submitted my documents but when I go to check, it looks like I'm still able to edit them. I'm wondering if anyone's attempted this before and this is just how it is?
(Wrong thread - deleted)

Since when is New Orleans in New England?
This is America. Anything can be anything it wants to be.

Whoops, posted in the wrong thread! Yes, Louisiana is not a New England state..
I was complete in August and have had green check mark since end of August. Still no II 🙁... Is there still possibility of getting one at this point? I am hoping that since they still haven't rejected me, it must be they are waiting for something to open up? I could be wrong...
+1
From what I can tell they are not shy about rejecting people outright so I'm choosing to remain optimistic. I think we're in the camp of *if people cancel we'll pull from this list of apps we aren't decided on*
In the email it says 'a great majority of applicants get placed on the Acceptance Range.' Is this true, it does not seem like it from the number of people posting about acceptances on here. It also does not look like anyone has been rejected post-interview yet. Could a current student comment on this - about how many matriculants get placed on the acceptance range vs an immediate acceptance?
Probably sampling bias quite honestly.
Same here I completed 10/4 and I just got a green check and I don't know if I have a chance to have II...OOS
Accepted today! I love Tulane. It was my top school, but declined just now in favor of my IS school, UW Seattle (much cheaper tuition and closer to home). Made me sick to decline, but hope my open seat will give someone good news before the holiday.

Accepted!! Interviewed 11/16
Of the people accepted, did you guys send post interview updates?
Nope, just a thank you email after the interview
Well great. I forgot to send a thank you. I'm doomed. [emoji52]
I didn't send a thank you note and still got accepted! They're definitely not mandatory
Yes. I sent thank you emails and a one page update/interest letter post interview through the portal. You could probably wrap up a "thank you to x and y for interviewing me" in a letter of interest/update if you didn't send thank you emails. A letter of intent might be helpful if you have no other acceptances or schools that you'd consider over Tulane. I'd send a letter of interest or intent even if you are in acceptance range.

Is there a point in checking the portal if you have not yet received an II? I constant keep checking to see if my status has changed but if they will send an email as soon as it changes, I’ll stop checking. Can someone tell me from their experience who got an II?
I do have a green check mark FYI btw. Thanks.

Looking forward to the interview in January!
Did you just get an invite? When did you get your green check mark?
Last week
Last week you got the invite or last week you got the green check mark?
