Advice needed! Please!! Regarding Tulane University

<p>I've always been interested in going to a big school with sports teams and tons of spirit. I don't care about athletics I I just love the sense of community that comes with organized sports. More importantly, I love the social aspect of sporting events. </p>

<p>But, I've run into a predicament. I've been accepted to Tulane University, a great school in New Orleans. I really love it, but I keep second guessing myself. I have some questions that I need answered, but I don't know anyone who goes there. If you can help me, please answer the following questions and give me any insights you have about making this choice. I would love to hear stories about you or your friends at Tulane, if you have the time. </p>

<ul>
<li><p>Whats the social life like? Is it as fun as a big school, like U of Michigan or U of Wisconsin? </p></li>
<li><p>Is the Greek system big there? I want to join a sorority. </p></li>
<li><p>Its also a medium sized school. Will I be missing out on important aspects of big school university life if I have a class of 2000 rather than 5000+ students? </p></li>
<li><p>Will it feel small after 4 years?</p></li>
<li><p>It's about 60/40 women to men. Is that apparent on campus? Or does it feel gender balanced? </p></li>
<li><p>What are known to be the best majors there?</p></li>
<li><p>Whats Tulane's reputation? I won't be offended if you say something bad about it, I genuinely want to know what people think about a school that could be my future university. Its one of the lowest ranked schools I applied to, but I really don't understand why it is ranked that way. I think of it as a prestigious, selective school, but I've talked to some people who have never even heard of it! Let me know. </p></li>
</ul>

<p>Please please please help me out if you know about Tulane or have any words of wisdom about choosing between a big or medium sized school.</p>

<p>Best wishes to all seniors applying to college right now. </p>

<p>OP, there’s a very active Tulane forum where people will be happy to answer these questions for you. They’re very generous and knowledgeable. Try your questions there.</p>

<p>Agree that the Tulane forum is a wealth of information. That said, didn’t you explore these things before you applied? </p>

<p>My s went to Tulane. He never complained of it feeling " small" even though he was in a small department where everyone knew everyone. This can have it advantages. </p>

<p>This must have been moved by an administrator from another forum to the Tulane forum, since the OP also posted in Tulane. You would think there would be some indication of this. Or am I missing it?</p>

<p>I asked the OP (see above) to take her question to Tulane forum. But it appears the moderator moved it before the OP could.</p>
