<p>Well, it isn’t as simple as that. They also take into account factors such as EC’s, strength of schedule (in other words, how many AP’s and/or local college courses), recommendations, etc.</p>
<p>But to answer your question, here is a link to the average stats. [Tulane</a> Admission: Getting Into Tulane](<a href=“http://admission.tulane.edu/apply/gettinginto.php]Tulane”>http://admission.tulane.edu/apply/gettinginto.php)</p>
<p>For the 2010 incoming class, there were just barely under 44,000 applications, with about 23.5% being accepted. Enrollment will be 1650-1680. SAT scores were up 9 points as an average, so the mid 50% range might move up some also, but no stats on that yet. As you can see, Tulane doesn’t really worry about the GPA per se, but a couple of years ago the average unweighted GPA was 3.49. But that is a bit old. What is current is that 63.5% of the incoming class graduated in the top 10% of their class.</p>
<p>Hope that helps.</p>
<p>“33 students from 12 countries other than the US”???</p>
<p>That is a tiny international enrolment. Very surprising.</p>
<p>Who are you quoting Tom?</p>
<p>The Tulane website you linked to in your previous post.</p>
<p>Oh I see. Well that was last year, no idea what it is this year. But Tulane is not a big destination for international students, that is true. My experience is that most international students are prestige driven, and so only the top 30 per USNWR get their attention. Also, quite a few international people think New Orleans is still under water. I am not joking.</p>
<p>Wow, 33 seems extremely low to me too. I mean I probably knew 15 finance majors alone from when I was there. Perhaps most internationals transfer in? Or do you think Tulane is trying to cut back (or vice versa)? </p>
<p>The business school in particular attracts a lot of South American kids for undergrad (and Asian folks for MBA and MFin.) I can’t see how it’s only 33 for the entire entering class. Although, the business school may be where they go after their first two years at a school in their home country so they are in fact transferring in.</p>
<p>They may want to avoid the liberal arts requirements that TU puts on the students the first two years.</p>
