Is Tulane receptive to letters of interest? I was placed on acceptance range here back in November, and the more I think about it the more I fall in love with Tulane. I really want to get off this waitlist!

To my understanding yes. Last year some of the students on acceptance range sent in LOIs and received eventual acceptances. Gosh I wish I knew what amount of Acceptance range get in. . . :sorry:
 
Acceptance Range. Interviewed 12/7. A little disappointed to be honest. Anybody know how much movement there is?

Tbh with Tulane's tuition price, I wouldn't be surprised if the waitlist moves a fair amount

You give me hope. This is my second time applying and I don't want to apply again. This process is so draining.
 
acceptance range interviewed 12/4 🙁 and I thought my interview here as well as patient scenario went amazing!
 
Anyone have any information regarding the Acceptance Range? I have done some research, but I am getting conflicting information. I know it depends on how many people decide to withdraw, but is there a good chance of getting accepted of the list? Sorry for the questions. I haven't been able to get this out of my mind all day. Dang neurotocism.
 
Speaking as a member of the Upcoming Interviews Club, seeing all these acceptances is making me nervous 😕

From what I've seen in past threads, we have nothing to worry about. But I hear you, sometimes I feel the same way. Just remember that most applicants tend to pick their state schools over Tulane, due to the lower cost.

I hope you're right. I interviewed already, but all these acceptances makes me feel like I have a smaller chance to get one
 
It's been exactly one month since my interview day and no word yet. This wait is killing me.

In related news, I ate Chinese food today and my fortune cookie said "Good news will be brought to you by mail." Don't let me down Tulane!

Does anyone remember what their Harry Potter style houses are called? I don't think it's cohorts or colleges...?

Just asking, like why would you ask that question. Like is that something that we have to know?? i.e you might get asked that question on interview day?

Checking back in to say that I've had the green check for ~22 weeks! lol

Mine I got a green check last Month(Dec.) and did not heard anything. I'm still interested with Tulane but I'm ok with my LSU acceptance.

Found this on the Tulane website:

"Acceptances are offered weekly, beginning October 1 and continuing until the class is filled. Each week, the Committee may elect to send offers of acceptance to applicants from the "acceptance range" list or to send offers of admissions only to applicants whose files have been reviewed that week."

No one has posted anything about being accepted or waitlisted this week, so maybe we will hear today? 🙂

I have had it since August. I just don’t understand. Like why are they keeping so many applicants on hold? It would make more sense to reject so the applicants are not kept wondering and hoping.

All schools like to keep as many applicants on hold as the open pool allows them to craft their ideal demographic of the class, fill quotas, leave wiggle room for extenuating circumstances, etc. This is not speculation, it was relayed to me by a family friend in charge of admissions at a US med school. And no, I did not apply there.
 
This is literally how I feel right now

Welp, just got put on acceptance range 🙁. Really loved the school and thought my interviews went well -sigh-

EDIT: I think I read that last year, they overaccepted people, so I'm hoping this year, maybe they are putting a lot more people on the waitlist and then have it move more? Maybe? Please?

Question: so I sent a letter update to a medical school and the director of admissions email me back. She said if i had questions on my application or if i wanted to discuss my application to call her and she gave me her number. What does that mean? Not accepted but discuss improvements?
