Does anyone know how many people are currently on the waitlist?

indo said:Wouldn't that make Tulane's waitlist sort of ranked rather than unranked?
If they've filled their class with 155 people and usually accept 400 does that mean 2/3rds of the waitlist people are pulled?
fiji128 said:They claim it is not ranked but as I stated before that doesn't jive with some of their own printed info. It is ranked based on the score your application receives but there is likely some wiggle room so they claim it is not ranked. (i.e. if your application is a 8 they will give move you off the list before someone whose application is a 6)
I don't know how many people on the waitlist are finally given offers. If you call them they won't tell you anything or even anything about past years. You just have to sit and wait. Does anyone know if they call/email/or send mail to inform you of an acceptance?
adamj61 said:I got the acceptance range one...never got a waitlist one, did you? Anyone else? Maybe this is an indicator of most likely getting off the list...it is pretty nice language
nockamura said:I called Tulane and the woman said that the committee is meeting today to decide the fates of the waitlisted students. Keep your fingers crossed. Good luck.
I see you've lost count, too. I know how much you love Tulane...so I hope you'll be celebrating soon.adamj61 said:God I hope it is going to be worth the 9 month wait or however long it has been

cpatel301 said:i personally cannot wait.
marina said:I got rejected from Tulane today, after many months on the acceptable list. I guess I wasn't acceptable after all...
good luck, the rest of you who are waiting.
indo said:If you search SDN for past years' SDNers taken off of tulane's waitlist you'll find only about 10 people who were plucked during the second have of april and throughout may. What does this mean? I don't know either.

nockamura said:How were you notified? I guess they did make a decision on waitlisted students yesterday.
marina said:They sent me a short letter.
Thanks, 2Tall.
I still have both LSUs as a possibility...
seethrew said:questions:
- i love tulane. its wicked kewl. facilities seem almost scarily aged. can anyone speak to their feelings on the adequecy of facilities, most importantly wit respekt to rotations, but also in terms of classroom media?
- i heard that there is no real emergency department in terms of curriculum at tulane and that current students interested in emergency medicine work a bit wit the LSU peeps. any knowledge on this? feel a bit shaky on my understanding of this.
- is NOLA really sinking 3" a year???

in comparison to the other hospitals i have seen at my interviews, it is bar none the oldest lookin, i speak of tulane u hospital (which someone on campus said had been better when not run by HMO) as well as obviously charity which was truly shocking in surface appearance. this is just a cursory typa thing tho. i know nothin of equipment.MechE said:Next year they will be moving the medical school to a brand new location a few blocks from where it is now. I wonder if anyone here has seen the new building? Does anyone know if the hospitals look as aged as the medical school?
i saw the architectural drawings of the med school floors and it looks pretty awesome. huge nice student lounge - 2 big screen tvs, cappucino machine etc - 3000+ sq feet or something crazy like that. a bunch of small classrooms, new lecture halls. heard they stressed that deans offices should be near where the students would be gathering.vikaskoth said:MechE, the building is right next to the superdome, its a big new tower that has won some architectural awards so i imagine its pretty nice. I believe someone posted pics of the building within the first pages of this thread, so you could skim through to take a look at them. I've never been inside or anything though.
I'd forgotten about those. Thanks.vikaskoth said:I believe someone posted pics of the building within the first pages of this thread, so you could skim through to take a look at them.
gaikokujin said:what can yall tell me about living in Deming?
freaker said:EVERYONE I spoke with warned me against it. We went through it on our tour, and it's a pretty sterile, bland place. It is connected to the hospital, which is convenient. I'd personally want some space away from school, but to each his own.
The rent also seemed a little high for what you got. At least relative to other apartments in NO.

vikaskoth said:gaiko, if your looking for a place within that short span, easiest bet is probably to check out the prudential and later-blum websites and then to make an appt with a realtor. Only searching through something like the Gambit, you could look at a decent amt of places in that time, but owners schedules are often busy and its hard to even reach some of the people that just place adds. As long as your not ultra picky, you should be able to find one. Also, you could call Tulane Med for the password to access the little real estate page for the incoming class.
I suppose if you know what kind of car and price your looking for, it could be done within a few days or less.
hey babe! wassup???? did u find a place???? been meaning to call u, are u still in NOLA? v interested to hear how the house hunt went.BabyDoctor said:For anyone looking for a realtor, the woman I spoke with at Latter and Blum was incredibly rude to me after finding out my situation and how much I had to spend. On the other hand, all of the people I've interacted with at ERA Sterling have been incredibly kind, patient, and more than competent. I highly, highly recommend them. FWIW.
