Hopefully I am not just giving Fake News haha. I just tried to find the average and cannot . . . in 2013 it looks like it was sub-230.

I'm so sorry everyone! I had no idea that being rejected before classes started was an option on the waitlist.

I'm so scared now. Tulane is literally my last hope!

A question for those rejected off waitlist: Do you all hold acceptances elsewhere?

I do hold an acceptance, I'm curious if this would have gone into their decision. I thought that med school only know this info after the end of April?

This would not factor into Tulane's decision.

At this time, only schools that have accepted you are able to see what other acceptances you hold.

Didn't know where to post this, but for those with MSAR subscriptions they updated the information for all schools including Tulane.

What's crazy is that the Median MCAT nationally is now a 511. It is incredible how rapidly the competition is increasing for med schools. Congrats to those holding seats, and to those still waiting we've got this :)

Thanks for this! Can you tell us more about what's on the MSAR for Tulane? My subscription expired... How many were interviewed / accepted?
 
Class 2021
WL Positions: 250
Accepted off WL: not provided
Median Accepted: 511
Median Matriculated: 510
Verified Apps: 9930
Interviewed: 595
Matriculated: 190
Age 19-23: 84 students
Age 24-29: 98 Students (Seems that they like older students, I hope they have mercy on my 22 y/o self)
COA: $86,062 so slight increase over the 84K for class of 2016
Average Indebtedness: 253K so that is better than the 262k for c/o 2016
Received aid: 75%



I do not know the total accepted . . .

Hope this helps.

Class 2020: 116/191 are 24 or older
Class 2021: 106/190 are 24 or older

These are straight from MSAR. I am so sorry that you received a rejection, but you have a lot to look forward to at your other schools and it could have been a yield protection move on Tulane's part. With a PhD you are a desirable applicant. Congrats on your 3 acceptancs you deserve them :)

Does anyone know if there is a second look day? And if so will those of us still waiting to hear back hear before then?
 
Interviews from 3/7 heard back today! We're super excited to be your anatomy TA's!!!

I haven't. Trying to patiently wait, but seeing people from 3/7 heard back before us makes me worried

When did you interview? And i think the interviewees from 3/7 were ACPs which is why they heard back early
 
Still on the waitlist so hoping for good news soon!! :O *Anxiety intensifies*

We're students that started at TUSOM last August and took anatomy alongside the Class of 2021. We officially begin next year as part of the Class of 2022 and will be your TA's throughout anatomy and histology.

Same boat!!! Did you upload your letter to the portal or e-mail a dean/office?

I emailed Dr. Marc Kahn directly. I debated uploading it as a PDF, and just put LOI in the body of the email. He's a busy guy and a PDF is just one extra step.

We’re you on waitlist/acceptance range list? Or have you not heard anything since your interview? Just trying to see when’s the best to send a LOI

I'm in the same boat as you but I ended up sending mine to Dr. Morris haha. I did upload an update letter a few weeks ago on the portal though. Perhaps that saved me from getting rejected off the waitlist. Who knows!!

Your logic makes perfect sense based on job title. But for future reference Dr. Morris essentially reigns over admissions. Dr. Kahn is more focused on student affairs issues. I'm sure your email made it to her, though!

Let's hope, haha! Glad that I made that mistake publicly so that others won't make the mistake :)
 
Got my financial aid letter this morning

Going off of previous threads, it seems like less accepted students have withdrawn this year compared to previous years. Of course, people might not be posting. It still has me worried though.

On the other hand, it feels like more people are getting accepted off the waitlist early compared to previous years

That's true. I'm probably over thinking things.
