2019-2020 Tulane

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Having an issue still with the application site. When I try to paste in my response from a word document, it either cuts it off (at the number of characters rather than the number of words) or it does not let me at all. Anyone else experiencing this?
This kept happening to me, I think their word count is weird so just remove a few words and then try pasting.
 
How far back are interview dates for those who have IIs? I heard that this time last year people were scheduling for February/March.
 
Got an II this morning! Completed and under review 07/17.

Lol Tulane's not that extreme. As of this morning when I picked my date, the earliest interview date is 10/04 with 4-7 ish dates per month.

Okay we're looking pretty good then.
 
Dumb question, but with a school like this that is obviously early compared to most other schools, is not submitting the secondary until say beginning of August going to be a big disadvantage?

I would say still apply. But if you get to September, maybe apply elsewhere
 
Submitted 7/22. Application marked as complete 7/23. Quick turnaround, but not sure how long they are gonna take to review!
 
Do you get a complete email? My portal says I'm complete but have no received an email about it?

I think so! I got a "We received your secondary" email 07/13 and a "Your application is complete and under review" email 07/17.
 
Same. I'm still gonna assume my application is complete, but maybe not under review yet.
The email after submitting 2ndary says:

Dear [student],

This is to acknowledge that we received your secondary application. You will receive another email once your application is complete and under review. We thank you for your continued patience.



Thank you,
Tulane University School of Medicine
Office of Admissions and Student Affairs

They acknowledge completion and start reviewing at the same time it seems like?

After I submitted my secondary yesterday, I got an email saying they received my application. I never got an email saying my application was complete and under review, but I did notice that the red exclamation points next to "letters of recommendation" and "application file complete" turned into green check marks. There is still a red exclamation point next to "In progress". I'll let you know when I get the official email saying my app is being reviewed.
 
Just got complete email today after submitting secondary 7/9
 
How long after we receive the complete email can we expect a decision about whether or not we will be interviewed?
 
Submitted 7/14 and still have not received a complete/under review email. My Casper scores have already been distributed to schools so that’s not holding it up
 
Are yall getting the complete email without having the Casper received yet orrrr? I sent my score but im not sure if its been received wondering if thats holding off me being complete.

I got the completed email before I took the CASPer test last week
 
submitted on the 12th, got a “we received” email the same day, haven’t got the “complete and under review” email yet, still have the red exclamation point on the portal for the last item...
 
Would it be a waste of time to call about the complete email? I know they said the office doesn't accept calls about application status but damn ppl who submitted 7/12-7/22 are marked complete and I submitted 7/10 ):

I’m not sure it would make a difference but you should call or email if it makes you feel better
 
Yeah... That's why I'm reluctant to call but it's been a full two weeks since everything was received s: makes me wonder if there's something wrong with my app.
Or maybe it's an early indicator of a soft R sigh my mind is going crazy with the waiting

I'm in the same boat submitted 7/10 and no response back. Just be patient.

No matter what the case is, were literally 3 weeks into a 50+ week process.
