My application is marked as complete, but under "document status" it says that no recommendation letters have been submitted- anyone else getting this issue? If that's still there Monday I'll call and ask...

For the prompts that say "list" did you all provide any description? They give 100-150 words, but if you just list it shouldn't be that long :shrug:

I list my stuff but try to include a sentence or so for the ones that require it. I am simply listing my leadership (because each has a slot in my primary app W/A) but for the hobbies one, I am listing and providing a short description for each. I figured that they gave us all that space for a reason.

When you guys submitted, did you receive a confirmation email? I received an email of my payment, but have yet to receive a confirmation email that they received my app

I didn't get a confirmation email either. All I have is my updated portal.

Is it bad to say that I want to go to Tulane because my favorite football team is the New Orleans Saints, lol...

Have you ever been to New Orleans to see a game (i.e. experience their culture, etc.)? That could definitely be a great segue. Otherwise, no, I think it'd be a stretch :p

My letters are in AMCAS long ago but somehow on Tulane's portal there's no letter and file is not completed.
 
"List any leadership positions, in clubs or organizations, you may have held during college."

I know it says during college, but would it be classified as unruly to list leadership positions I held in my graduate program (SMP at a medical school)?

I still have it and I submitted everything on Wednesday. I think they had this exact issue last cycle and just didn't update the red exclamation points until closer to IIs were going out.

it takes a while for the red checkmark to turn into a green. Just look at the threads from previous years.

If you look at last years thread, they were super random with the timing. I think they had difficulty getting them from AMCAS or something, but it probably wouldn't hurt to call and check.

Has anyone tried to edit content in the text boxes after saving but before submitting? I saved my work earlier and found a type, but I can't seem to edit anything in any of the text boxes on the "Personal Information" page....

that's happening to me too right now!
 
+1 Was hoping to submit today but the secondary won't let me enter in my essays. Guess I need to wait a bit longer.

I had the same issue as many of you - unable to type in the text fields on the secondary application interface. I emailed them and this is the response:


Hi Zygomatic,

There is a problem with the secondary application. We have reported the problem to our tech support and they are investigating the problem. Please check the application later today. We look forward to receiving your application.

Thank you,
Tulane School of Medicine Admissions Team

I was pretty convinced I was rejected pre-secondary submission, hah. Hopefully it will be fixed later today!
 
Just got e-mail that secondary is under review! Also, when looking at overall application status, I have a green check for LOR, but when clicking it, I still get the 'No LOR have been submitted' statement.
