Hello! I just submitted my application Early Action to Tulane and was wondering what my chances of getting in were.
GPA: 3.96 unweighted
ACT: 31
7 APs
Yearbook Editor
Key Club Vice President
3 Varsity Sports (Captain of 2 of them)
4 academic clubs
200+ hours of community service
Girls State
I absolutely LOVE tulane and am so anxious for my admissions decision… what do you think
I think you have what it takes: a strong course work and good scores. More importantly make sure your essay is well written. Good luck!
Looking good! Good luck
You are practically a shoo-in as long as you did the Why Tulane essay. You should get a nice offer for merit scholarship as well. You should think about applying for the Community Service Scholarship, which can be added to any merit award up to the amount of full tuition and fees.
We went to see the TU event locally last night. The person kept begging us not to believe any myths on CC:)
For instance, lack of interest for one fellow was not that he didn’t visit, but that he blew off the why TU essay, and wrote one sentence, and generic. So listen to fallenchemist on that!!
Thanks everyone!
LOL at what @HRSMom wrote. She is right about what the rep said, although I hope they really didn’t say not to believe what you read here since most of it is perfectly correct. But for sure Tulane knows many people cannot possibly visit. They would never hold that against someone. There are several ways to show strong interest.
I guess she wrote that they said “any myths”, which is of course right. But I don’t think there are many myths these days. Used to be a lot more right after Katrina. That is why I started here in the first place, people were posting so much nonsense back then. It is far better now.
They said not to believe any “myths” you might see on CC…she wasn’t bagging on CC tho:)
