You log into the UPS account, and it will show you if there’s a package on the way. Use MyUPS tracking on the site once you’re logged in.
My daughters Gibson account used to have financial aid option now it just has a welcome section with no info. Anyone know what that means? Where do we find acceptance or denial letter?
@myoldest did you already have an account for your son on UPS or did you just open it today?
For the UPS Account, myoldest, did you track the package by means of searching for the university “Tulane University” at the "Tracking or Info number section"in the MyUPS section?
I remembered that another parent had suggested the UPS account much earlier in this thread (already had a kid there, I think). I opened the account about a week ago. I don’t actually search in UPS. I logged into MyUPS, used the tab that says tracking, and it opened to two tabs. One is regular tracking. If you click the other, it opens to a calendar view, and the shipment from Tulane shows there.
@myoldest Do you know if the UPS account has to be set up with the email Tulane has on file?
@G8tr2mom I’m pretty sure not because I used my email address on the UPS account, with his name, exactly as he wrote it on his application.
@mom3boyz even if the student was deferred they can still receive merit (any many do). Merit is not affected by whether the applicant was deferred or not.
@kbn2015 Tulane will release the admission decision when they have made it. There is no specific order they read the applications so when you sent in your app doesn’t determine when you will receive a decision (which is why it is not considered rolling).
Any other stamp finalists? I heard only 10 got selected as finalists.
is it true that the percent of undergraduate international students is only 2.5 ?
I just received an email that an update has been made to my application status. I have already been accepted to the school and was looking to hear back from DHS and Paul Tulane scholarship. I didn’t notice that anything has changed on my application status, is there something i should be looking for?
Near the top of the page in the application portal there is a box with Early Action 2017 or whatever you applied as in it, click the arrow to the right and there will be a drop down menu with the Paul Tulane Award listed. Select that option, and it will take you to the scholarship page with an update to your application.
Is anybody else having changes in their portal? I was accepted as a presidential scholar and that’s still reflected in my letter, however my invitation to top scholars weekend is no longer there (I registered a while back). Has anybody else had this happen to them?
Has anyone noticed if regular decision acceptances are coming out on certain days like the EA acceptances or if its seemingly random?
My son got a notice two days ago he was accepted Regular Decision. Was surprised he heard so early.
My son submitted just a day or two before the RD deadline and he just got accepted (some people do hear early forr RD though I think most hear later in March). So I don’t think the late submittal was an impediment. He did, however, visit the school and had shown keen interest. I’ve had other students in other years say that a submittal close to the deadline has no negative effect on your chances.
Should we be looking for a decision in the Tulane application status page or in Gibson? My d submitted a week late so idk if that hurts her at all. She applied because it was a free application but wasn’t sure how strict they are about their deadlines.
For my dd, change showed up first in Gibson then application status next day …
You get an email saying that ur portal was updated
