2019 Tulane EA/SCEA Decision Thread

<p>@Fallenchemist also please give any tips/suggestions/information that would be helpful to THE DEFERRED in the coming days.</p>

<p>NicoleMMM – re: SATs, maybe not as low as you think … see fallenchemist’s post no. 507. And college is a fresh start; if you’re in, your in. When the prof hands back the first exam or paper and its a D+, saying “but I got a 2300 on my SAT” probably wont be an adequate explanation (smile). </p>

<p>I was curious about the range of stats for the merit scholarship recipients. This is the tally up to this point in this thread.</p>

<p>Data Columns:<br>

  1. SAT or ACT score<br>

<p>@GMTplus7 It seems like there is a slight concordance, but nothing too strong. It may be based on a lot of subjective factors as well…</p>

<p>It does seem pretty subjective, especially with some of the recent deferrals. My dd didn’t send any recs (they weren’t required) and looking at the applicant pool here, I think she didn’t put as much effort into the app as she should have (Tulane was a safety). </p>

<p>Tulane’s strategy is working on her, though, and the early decision and $ has made her go back and look for reasons to attend. (For example, she specifically didn’t want a “southern” school, which is why she wasn’t that excited to begin with - grew up in the South - but the geographic diversity is pretty impressive.) I also think that we are in an underrepresented geographic region.</p>

<p>GMT – thanks. Wow, you put a lot of work into that!</p>

<p>Here are the all the self-reported deferrals, up to this point in the thead. Quite a few high-stats deferrals:</p>

<p>@GMTplus7 So interesting when you compile all the results. Thanks for doing the foot work!</p>

<p>GMTplus7 did put in the work on those lists! But for merit awards, UW GPA is also a factor, so that might explain some of the “uncorrelated” results. Plus I am sure there are, in fact, some other factors, although I do think stats dominate the decision.</p>

<p>@GMTplus7 you can also add me to the founders scholar! 2170 super score haha</p>

<p>

Since I have done the initial legwork and have included the post# numbers, perhaps some kind soul can add the GPAs? :-* </p>

<p>And please add @reteamnosleep! #749</p>

<p>@GMTPlus7, my D got a “distinguished” scholarship (27K/year) and she had a 30 ACT.</p>

<p>@GMTplus7 I’m under Academic scholarship, you already got my test scores, but my UWGPA is 3.75</p>

<p>Accepted this morning! What a wonderful surprise. :slight_smile: No mention of merit aid but I believe that comes separately in a letter? </p>

<p>Alright @GMTplus7 I did my best to compile a list with GPA’s for merit awards, don’t have time to go through deferrals though. Hope this is helpful.</p>

<p>I’ll be interested to see of those with the merit awards, how many will enroll in Tulane?</p>

<p>My account still says “we have received all your materials your decision is awaiting review” nothin has changed for around 2.5 months. I’m like 99% sure this means deffered. Ugh. </p>

<p>I got deferred today. My status never changed to “your application is being reviewed” it just said “will be reviewed” the whole time. </p>
