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.
Rejected off the waitlist just now. Didn’t even know that was a thing? Oh well good luck to everyone.

Wow rejected off the waitlist. Thought I'd at least be kept on it through april 30
Got the R from the waitlist. Good luck to all else!
Dang... Sounds like a blood bath just occurred... Sorry gals/guys.. at least you're no longer being teased. But it was good bonding with y'all in this thread
Same! I haven’t seen this in past threads either. I literally had a mini-heart attack when I saw these posts
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?

Forgot to quote you haha
As an older student that just got rejected off the waitlist, I'll call B.S. lol
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 🙂

This just made me so nauseous 🤢
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?
I believe there is no second look day.

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
2/26. And that makes sense, thanks for clarifying, I'm still jealous of them!
What's an ACP?

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.
How does one go about applying for that?

Just sent an LOI, seriously hoping to join the class of 2022!!
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.
Hm... I always thought Dr. Morris was the gal to send it to?
I think either is fine. I just figured I should send it to the highest up in the food chain. Dr. Morris is assistant Dean.
Dr. Kahn
School of Medicine ~ Administration | medicine
Cindy Morris
Cindy A Morris, PhD | medicine

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 waitlisted
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 🙂

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.
Haha I know I'm right here going insane too.
