@Weinstein1 You create an account and then authorize the My UPS Choice section to check for incoming packages.
Our son applied both. I predict PTA because his essays were the best heād ever done, whereas his DHS was solid but no wow factor and seemed a little bit of a rush job. Iām probably too critical and am just guessing.
If you havenāt received a notification about the package yet does that mean you didnāt receive an award? I only applied for the PTA and I live in Missouri which is pretty far from Tulane. Could they have only sent out the DHS today or could distance affect when I receive it?
@essayfatigued Thatās what Iām wondering. I feel like the DHS will go out first.
UPS site is down for me. Too many DHS/PTA hopefuls enrolling right now?
@WineDrinker 1 UPS package inbound from āTULANE UNIVERSITY ADMISSIONSā via UPS Ground
Also I want to note that Iām from the greater New Orleans area as well. There seems to be a high number of locals reporting receiving these notifications. I donāt know if this was typical or not, but for those outside of NOLA, there may still be hope. Keep your ear pressed to the ground.
ratsā¦nothing heading our way. Oh wellā¦
Iām holding out hope that UPS couldnāt update before they shut down for the day before processing out of town shipping! (Assuming that the weather is so bad that no employer is staying open.)
holding out lots of hope apparently
Also wanted to note (not to put anyone down but just to note) I received a notification that I had a UPS package in the mail from Tulane on Saturday and it ended up being a packet regarding the Architecture school. I have yet to receive a notification of anything in the mail since. Anyone received any rejection email yet or know when those will be sent out?
@collaroyblue how heavy does it say the package is? Mine says 1 poundā¦idk what else it could be other than the award. That would suck though if it was something else. Iām keeping my fingers crossed
@Griffinwilson79 I believe I read that rejection emails wonāt be sent until like a week after the awards. Not 100% sure though.
@anothermuggle I guess weāll know also if we didnāt receive it if we donāt get it by the end of this week in the mail as well so the email is probably unnecessary in that regard.

Nothing for us on UPS ā¦ I guess it means his other choice is meant to be!
@grfeta15 where are you from (if you donāt mind saying)
Has everyone who has received notification been from the Louisiana area?
@2KOsmom Iām from New Orleans
We got UPS notifications and live in The Woodlands, Texas
My child applied to both PTA and DHS. Like @WineDrinker, received two separate UPS notices that labels were printed, one ground, one overnight. (This was not for Architecture. ) We are in the midwest. Both listed as 1lb BUT it is my guess that is more a cutoff weight, not actual weight. Does anyone know why TWO packages?
No emails received about Stamps finalist. Have to be happy with Tuition & FEES. Curious, since the DHS application, is this recent round the one and only interview for Stamps, OR has there already been a round of Stamps interviews as semifinalists that are then whittled down with the latest recent round (this week)?
