Previous Notification Dates

Hello, I know that Tulane does not have rolling admissions, but they do release decisions a few times before the final date, December 15th. Just wondering if anyone has the various dates that they sent out admissions last year (2016) so that we may have an idea (for people who applied EA) when they might hear. If anyone else has further information on dates, I would love to know!

Last year then released a bunch this week (oct 30-nov 3 roughly) and again around thanksgiving.

@Maggiepl09 thank you!

There have been rumors that they are not releasing updates as frequently as they have in the past (I posted a thread about it, asking a similar question), so I wouldn’t get your hopes up about hearing back this week.

@naf619, you are correct. Admissions decisions will be less “rolling” than in previous years. While in the past, decisions were released as early as this week (my son was notified Nov 1, 2012), decisions will come out closer to the December date this year, most likely in “batches.” So sit tight everyone and assume that you will not be hearing for several more weeks. And good luck to all. Tulane is an amazing school… wishing you all the best!

thank you!! @naf619 @jozuko

Correct. As I posted in another thread, is seems that they plan to release once in early December and Once in early January, unless things have changed.

FWIW, my DS heard in mid October when he was admitted. Hard to believe that was 10 years ago!

This year there will only be one or two release dates for each app type, unlike previous years where decisions have been released on several different dates. You will be updated on when those dates are via Jeff’s blog!

@HazelnutorFootball who is Jeff?

@IvyLeaguer225 - Jeff is Jeff Schiffman. He is the director of admissions. To find his blog, google: Tulane Jeff. Here is the link: http://tuadmissionjeff.blogspot.com/

@jozuko Thank you!!

@IvyLeaguer225, @Maggiepl09, @naf619 - Just posted on another thread but wanted to make sure y’all saw the information. I spoke with someone in admissions and was given the following info:

ED1 decision letters will be mailed out on November 27 and those decisions will be made available on the applicant’s portal on November 30. Good luck to everyone!

@nostalgicNOLA thanks for the update! now I’m getting stressed out haha, but while Tulane is my first choice I’m sure I’ll end up where I need to be.

@nostalgicNOLA …any word on the EA notifications?

@naf619 - seems like you have the right attitude! If you ever have any questions, never hesitate to PM me - happy to help answer any questions you may have!

@jozuko - the only information I was able to get for EA notifications is that EA applicants will hear back mid/late December. I will continue to try and get specific dates for you - wish me luck!

@nostalgicNOLA - did the person you spoke to in admission’s mention the ED applicants that are still awaiting to be connected with an alumni for an interview?

@nostalgicNOLA thank you!!

@karstu - no information about Alumni Interviews, sorry!

@karstu - I spoke with someone in admissions about the Alumni Interview details and here is what I have for you:

If you have requested an interview and have yet to hear back, check your spam folder (especially if you are using Gmail).
If you are an ED applicant who requested an interview more than a couple weeks ago, and have yet to hear back, you should email your Tulane admission counselor.

If you are an EA applicant who requested an interview then you don’t need to do anything - they are still matching alumni with applicants.
