How long does it take from the under review email to getting a decision?

I’ve been under review since 7/29 and have not been given any decision. It seems like some applicants get decisions within a few days though

 

[Beastmode5556]

Yeah just confused by the rejections and holds. Would think I would get an interview hold email before someone who was in review 10 days later.

Same!

Did you receive the under review email?

Just checked my email, it went to spam for some reason but I got the under review email on August 15th so I got a while it looks like.

submitted secondary 7/18, got "complete" email immediately after, and i finally got an "under review" email yesterday...

Sounds like from time of "under review" to a decision is at least a couple weeks at this stage. Probably more given the increasing volume of applications they're dealing with.

Yeah that makes sense, kinda the same logic as people who submitted their primary in late May and had it verified a couple days later.

it seems like it takes a month for any updates if you submit your secondary 8/12 expect an email with an updated ~9/12 or so

Is no decision better than an interview hold? I was under review 7/24.

no news is good news !

A little confused can someone clarify if we get another email after the “secondary received” and “application is complete” email? Like is there another saying we are being reviewed or is that the “application complete”?

Yes, you should get another email that says secondary application under review

How long did it take for you to receive under review email after your secondary application was completed?

Preparing for interview 09/10... any advice or threads I should look at? Similarly, any threads from former/current Tulane med students about what the school's like?

Thanks in advance

I think so. I've been under review since 8/14 but complete on 7/17 and yet to have heard back.

 

[imstxrstruck]

IS II 8/25, marked review 8/23, submitted secondary 7/21

do people recommend uploading their CV/resume onto the tulane portal?

No. Your Activities section on your primary is your CV.

Same boat, even their Admit cycle is way different from last year. Bulk of rejections now when it came later in the cycle last year!

 

[deleted1211092]

Is no news actually good news? They typically wait to send an insane amount of rejections at the end of the cycle

Me too...

Anyone know anything about Tulane’s post II acceptance rate?

 

[Produce Sweaty 456]

Anyone know anything about Tulane’s post II acceptance rate?

I mean, their class size last cycle was 190, and they conducted about 600 total interviews. So maybe around 50%?

Obviously I don't know if this is impacting admissions decisions, but this week is the 20th anniversary of Katrina and Tulane has been having lots of remembrance events going on throughout all of its schools (including the medical school).

Tulane reflects on Katrina: 20 years of renewal and resilience

Also, it's a holiday weekend. I'd be willing to bet most people took a 4 day weekend

I’m a bit confused. I received an email saying that app is complete, but not that my app is under review. The email says that I should watch out for a green check mark that indicates that my app is under review. Where is this checkmark? How do I know whether my app is under review?

You will get another email once your app is under review, I submit my secondary mid July and did not get the under review email until a few weeks later so just be patient! I’ve been under review about a month now and still haven’t heard back but I guess no news is good news!

 

[ILoveFelines03]

I submitted my secondary 07/25, and still haven't gotten an "under review" email. Is this bad 😢 I know there are a lot of apps to review, but I am getting so so anxious only hearing back from one school out of 23 so far.

 

[keviv.27]

How long does it take from the under review email to getting a decision?

i submitted secondary 07/18, and got ann under review email 08/18...still waiting as well. I feel like in the first "wave" it took like around a month for people to get an Interview hold or an R. im not too sure now though.

 

[keviv.27]

do people recommend uploading their CV/resume onto the tulane portal?

i asked the same question, and was told nah, since the primary app is essentially this.

im in ur shoes too! i'm hoping its a re-review since if it was a hold or R they would've told us like they told others

If that's the case, then I'll probably get a response from them soon. Tulane told me my app is under review on 8/3....uh oh
