Guidelines Related to Admissions Procedures
The Office of Admissions of the Tulane University School of Medicine is currently operating from Baylor College of Medicine, in Houston, TX.
Unfortunately, as a result of the damage caused by hurricane Katrina to our campus in New Orleans, our operations are very limited. Be assured that we are continuously working towards resuming our regular operations in the New Orleans campus as soon as we possibly can. This web site will be updated constantly as the status of things change, so please make sure to check it often.
In the meantime, here are updated (10/21/05) guidelines to give our applicants an idea of how we are handling our admissions procedure:
For applicants who had received an invitation to interview at Tulane School of Medicine prior to Katrina: we are currently rescheduling these appointments for interviews to be conducted at Baylor College of Medicine. Also for Baylor/Tulane combined applicants who are scheduled to interview for Baylor College of Medicine, we are scheduling interviews on the Saturday following their interview at Baylor. Please call Susanna Vargas at 713-798-4835 to arrange a scheduling.
If you have not received an invitation to interview at Tulane School of Medicine, but had completed your application, please wait until you are contacted by our office. We are working towards being able to get access to our data system soon, so that we can pick up where you left off in our review procedure. In the event that our data system is not available soon, we will post new information on the web site providing other options.
Tulane University School of Medicine will now start accepting applications again for entering class 2006. Anyone that has applied after August 15, 2005, please resubmit your Secondary Application (which is now back on-line), a copy of your AMCAS application, and a fee of $95.00. Before submitting your $95.00 fee, check your bank statement to see if your check has cleared the bank, if so please send a copy of your cancelled check.
The faculty members of Tulane Medical School are conducting classes at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, TX. Applicants are now being interviewed at Baylor and the first letters of Acceptance will be mailed October 15, 2005. All applications and correspondence should be mailed ONLY to our temporary address, Tulane University School of Medicine, P.O. Box 1790, Gretna, LA 70054.
Again, please continue to check the web site information for updated details.

Assistant Dean for Admissions
