Tulane EA and ED Admission Decisions - Class of 2021

Is this all via Tulane.edu, check application status?

I GOT IN I CANNOT BREATHE !!! MY SCORES AR AWFUL!

does your application just say status: admitted? because mine still says application submitted:/

same …

@bookiee what are your stats

to those accepted: when did you submit your applications? bc i submitted mine mid november and they may be going by date??? i dunno

Looks like I’m going to be deferred. This is so frustrating, I’ve worked so hard (as I know everyone has!) and I’m feeling like I’m not going to get in anywhere :confused:

@catmo24 i submitted november 14th

Submitted october 31 issue with act so wasn’t received until 11/21 stats were 3.8 GPA and 30 ACT 25k merit per year

I submitted my application for early action the day it was due (nov 15) Do you think that has something to do with the fact that I haven’t heard back yet? My stats are strong, so I would hate to think that I wasn’t accepted. This is so stressful!!!

Is it true that if we haven’t heard back yet were likely to get deferred… ? :confused:

Accepted!
