Financial Aid

<p>Does anyone know the percentage of need Tulane meets? My d received some nice merit aid but will also need a good chunk met on the financial aid side for her to be able to attend. So I was wondering about this as well as how long after filling out the FAFSA and CSS profile you find out the financial aid package.</p>

<p>Last year the financial aid awards went out mid-March.</p>

<p>Thanks, harvardgator. Do you or anyone else happen to know what percentage of need Tulane meets?</p>

<p>According to the college board website and studentaid.gov, Tulane meets 95% of need. Since they are a profile school, the equity in your home is considered. </p>

<p>Based on my son’s financial aid packages for the past two years it seems as if they added about 4-5% of our home equity to our FAFSA EFC, and met 95% of the difference.</p>
