<p>For those who got accepted, how long was it until you got the actual letter in the mail? I got accepted last Thursday and I haven’t gotten anything yet. I kind of want to see how much merit aid I get before I decide to apply to PTA or not. </p>
<p>so - what does it mean when it goes from “complete” to “pending”???</p>
<p>I’ve read on this thread it means they are reviewing your file.</p>
<p>@engineering2015 </p>
<p>You are going to be cutting it close! You should have the letter today or tomorrow, most likely.</p>
<p>Well, certainly a better turn from last night’s weird shabang. I’ve been admitted to Tulane!</p>
<p>Now, I just need to wait for the FA package & apply for Paul Tulane scholarship…</p>
<p>I was deferred from EA to RD, is that bad?</p>
<p>Did your status just change to deferred? I heard they do them (mostly) all at once. And don’t count it out. You still have a shot. Good luck!</p>
<p>Son got accepted yesterday and is very excited! Tulane is his first choice. 660/660/640, but he has a sibling attending so that may have helped.</p>
<p>Does anyone still have " your file is complete and awaiting review?"</p>
<p>@bengalmombengal. Yes, my DD is the same. </p>
<p>Mine changed to pending. It was a shock to see something different after so long with the same thing!</p>
<p>@Ctesiphon </p>
<p>Congratulations! I have to say it: All that sturm and drang for nothing 
That’s OK, it happens every year. Good luck with the rest of the process.</p>

<p>See the link that was posted about people that are deferred, that sends you to the Tulane admissions blog regarding your situation. <a href=“Tulane University Admission Blog - Jeff Schiffman: I've Been Deferred. Now What?”>http://tuadmissionjeff.blogspot.com/2011/12/ive-been-deferred-now-what.html</a></p>
<p>@bengalmombengal - same here. applied in September and still “your file is complete and awaiting review”</p>
<p>same @bengalmombengal </p>
<p>have people already been deferred or rejected?</p>
<p>I got the same thing! Please someone shed some light on what this means?? </p>
<p>@paige4229 </p>
<p>It means wait, you will get an answer (even if the answer is a deferral) in a day or two, most likely. Obviously no later than Monday.</p>
<p>@shell765 </p>
<p>Yes, there have been deferrals and denials. Deferrals for sure, many reports of those. Only a couple of reports of denials, but I assume they are true.</p>
<p>@shell765: it looks like a lot of people heard late in the day, and even on the weekend, but that may have been the result of checking Gibson later rather than earlier. </p>
<p>so is it worth checking after 6pm (EST)?? so stressed</p>
<p>does this mean a deferral is coming my way since the 15th deadline is fast approaching? My status on Gibson changed from “your application is complete and awaiting review” to "Your decision is pending review We will try to get you a decision in just a few weeks, but you will receive an update on your admission status by December 15th at the latest.
