Hi All…first of all, welcome to the Tulane family! My son has just finished his junior year and will be flying home tomorrow morning from NOLA to NJ. If feels like yesterday that I was a CC junkie, living here on this Tulane page. I actually made quite a few CC friends, many of whom I met in person down in NOLA and one (I’m talking to you Oliver17) has become a true, valued friend. (Several of us met at orientation and a whole group had a meet up at the Rum House the night before move in. A couple of the moms even wore tee shirts that said I luv FC (Fallenchemist) Note: our kids thought that we were nuts, but several of them became friends because of our CC connection.)
Now that you are officially Tulane Parents, I suggest that you ask to join the Tulane Parents facebook group. This is an incredibly valuable resource for Tulane parents. We are a supportive group with information on everything from restaurants and hotels to study abroad tips, graduation info, and places to order birthday cakes. This is a closed group for Tulane Parents only, so the administrators will have to confirm that you are a Tulane parent. Welcome…your going to love it!
It seems like yesterday. My son has completed 3+2 Dual Degree Physics (Tulane) and Mechanical Engineering (Vanderbilt). He finished Tulane Physics 2014 (Dean’s List) and he would walk for graduation ME in Vandy a few days with Dean’s List. Tulane is such a fine school and is very accommodating to the needs of the students. Tulane has provided internships for my son and therefore has helped him with his school/resume and elevated his skills. If any students wants to pursue 3+2 Programs (Physics and Engineering), it is easy and not complicated; as long as you will qualify the requirements GPA 3.5 then the rest is history. Thank you Tulane, you are the best.
That is outstanding, @Tulanefan101 and the most hearty congrats to your family and especially your son. That is the kind of accomplishment that makes us all proud.
Thank you Fallenchemist. You too are the best.
