Was the email for those on hold or for those who are still under review? I haven't heard anything since going under review ~5 months ago

It was for being still under review, but then again I did complete my app in October so I guess it makes sense. Seems like a lot of people are still under review though.
 
Just called the admissions office and they said November should hopefully hear back by next week. Although the first person I talked to said my application was on hold even though I interviewed (wtf???)
 
Just got placed on hold for interview. What are my chances at getting an interview now?
 
Do y'all think it is frowned upon to send in more than one update/interest letter between now and whenever they review the interviewed pool as a WL applicant?

Under review just now. Complete mid-August.

Do they send a separate email when you are "under review"? My application is "ready" for some months -- I wonder what the general process for application status updates for this school is?
 
realistically those of us on hold won’t be getting re reviewed since there still people yet to be reviewed 😭

does pre-II mean they have not sent you the secondary application?

No.. it means that they reviewed your entire app (Primary and Secondary) and are basically saying we will come check you out again as we keep going through apps. Not invited for interview yet but also not totally rejected.
 
How long does it usually take to hear back after being put under review?

Just for the record I'll have been under review for 6 month pretty soon! I've moved on from Tulane but figured people might be interested, my guess is someone forgot to click a button to put me on hold, especially seeing as I was under review during the hurricane and I bet that screwed up some of their systems.

I was only under review for a week before I was put on hold. They don't seem to have a set time frame

Edit: this was back in Sep/Oct so idk if that makes a difference

Someone probably finished one pile and grabbed the next.

Huh? Well they haven't gotten to 11/11 yet so their pile system must suck if that's the case

I mean your file is probably on someone’s desk, and they haven’t gotten to it. Those who are being put in AR right now maybe just got picked up by someone recently. I hope they get back to you soon.

For a second, I read this as "I mean your life is probably on someone's desk"...

Could also be that poster is IS or went to Tulane for undergrad if they heard significantly earlier than other people from their interview date range

Haha…but for real though.

I was also speculating that maybe they’re collecting acceptances before sending out a bolus of A emails since we haven’t seen much. So if you’re being skipped over for AR, might be a good thing…?
 
does tulane accept post-II updates? or even a LOI
 
For anyone who is worried because you haven't heard anything post interview yet-- during my interview last week, they said they are SUPER far behind. I believe they said something along the lines of "our normal time period is 6-8 weeks post interview, but we are beyond the 8 week point at the moment. Hopefully by the time we get to this interview date, we will be back on track. But Mardi Gras is coming up, so actually, it may still be closer to the 8 week mark." So basically, they are just super far behind reviewing post interview and they are trying really hard to catch back up!

Thank you for sharing. Gives some relief to my aging heart!
 
From neurotically looking back through this thread and last year's thread:

A lot of people from September interviews heard back after people from October interviews - Several egregious ones: 09/09 heard back 14 weeks later (AR). 9/15 heard back 16 weeks later (accepted)

2020-21 thread: They straight up skipped half of November and all of December (these people all heard back in March) and started accepting January people instead.
