Tulane Number Interviewed Number Accepted

[BeardedRunner]

Can anyone please give me those stats?
I looked at the School Selector spreadsheet and it said like 1100 people interviewed and only 172 acceptances - that can't be right!?!?

Thanks for looking that up but I thought the chances for acceptance were a lot better than that for most med schools.

IS: 473 applied, 102 interviewed, 70 were accepted, 36 enrolled

The US News book provides the accepted and enrolled totals?

 

[chad5871]

No problem. If you want the data for any other schools, just let me know.

The US News book provides the accepted and enrolled totals?

I'm not sure about the book. These came from the online guide (it's $14.95 for access for a year).

Woah thats awesome information. So the 335 accepted include from the WL? Do you happen to have Creighton's?

Yeah, 335 accepted does include those that were waitlisted.

They don't have the IS and OOS data except that 14 IS enrolled and 112 OOS enrolled. Sorry.

Remember: MSAR reports the matriculants, NOT the sheer number of acceptances. So only the people who actually end up going to the school are counted. But, as chad pointed out, the actual number of acceptances extended for every schools is significantly more.

 

[zolaash]

where are you finding the # of people accepted to a certain school?

Sometimes you can find it somewhere on their site.

But the easiest way is to pay the $15 to US News to get access to their medical school rankings and information.

To answer my own question, those numbers are in the book, too. (I came across it by chance yesterday)

Chad, you are the man.

Anyone know if Tulane is a closed file interview? The 2007 interview feedbacks say yes, but the 2008 ones don't say.

 

[msc78]

I heard that Tulane was going down to one faculty interviewer this year and it will be closed... Don't know how accurate that is though.

I called a few days ago and was asked to hold, but the lady didn't actually put me on hold, she just put the phone down while she waited for someone to bring her some coffee with sugar. She sounded like she really needed it. It was funny.

Hey Chad any chance you can give me GW's stats? Pretty please?

 

[chessknt]

Looking at 40% rate (something like 1k invited, 400 accepted).

I'm just going to cut to the chase: Chad, can you post the stats for every US allopathic school?

 

[Kaydubz]

lol i wonder if usnews would have some issue with that

They sure would. I just bought the damn thing because its 15 and super useful, I recommend you guys do the same.

 

[Davnport]

does anyone know if those "applicant" figures from US News represent the amount of people that applied from the primary application or the amount of applicants that actually finished a secondary? From what I have read, a lot of people don't finish all the secondaries of schools they listed in their primary app.

Thanks in advance!

 

[icarus8]

whoa, wait a minute. Of course the accepted number will be greater than the matriculated number reported in the MSAR, but the MSAR has the number of interviews granted at nearly twice the number the USNews stats you provided does (1100+ vs 600+). Whats the deal with that discrepancy?

Unless, is it 600ish interviewed but not accepted, and the sum of the interviewed+accepted+matriculated were all interviewed?

Unfortunately I can't do this for every school. In order to get the information you really need to just buy the subscription. I don't mind doing it for a few schools here and there, but I can't dispel all of this information for free that everyone else has to pay for.

It's only $15. Compared to the cost of primary and secondary applications, and then travelling to interviews. It's a drop in the bucket. It's cheaper than the MSAR, too.

Haha, I was being sarcastic and making fun of all the people who were asking for this school and that school.

I'm confident that applicant number = completed secondaries.

Hi guys. I am currently a T1. From last year's applicant pool, 8500 applied, and there were 500-600 interviews given out roughly. They accepted a third or less outright I believe and put everyone else on the waitlist aka the "acceptable range"... BUT we had a LOT of waitlist movement this year so don't lose hope!!!

Our interview was closed file BUT that does not mean some can't get access if they don't want to, but for the most part, it is closed.

Tulane is a great school so don't give up if you are having problems with the secondary... It WILL BE WORTH IT!!!! Ok, hope this helps you guys!

No one knows? Surely the MSAR can't be off by 500+. IF it is, I want my $$ back...

Yeah, that seems a lil' odd.... let's just hope US News is right!
