has anyone been deferred???
@maverick53 Idk I don’t think it was some random thing
So after an afternoon of stalking the mailman and a week of lurking on this thread, I am excited to announce I have received my acceptance for EA as well as a Distinguished Scholars Award! I was also offered a spot in the Honors Program. Here are some of my stats, if this is helpful:
From Texas (DFW area)
Rank: Top 14%
ACT: 33
Lots of involvement in music activities as well as leadership positions
I did the Why Tulane essay and sent 2 teacher recommendations
Also, my EDII button did not work last night for people who are wondering. I wish the best of luck to people still awaiting decisions as well as congratulate people who were admitted!
@conflictedcollegegal6789998212 Hmm…I’ll let you know around 4pm. I’m in Fort Worth so our mail from there should be about an hour or two after yours.
Admissions reads cc,folks.
I get it, I’m nervous too, but to be honest I don’t think “solving” the ED2 mystery will help anything. In the end, we won’t know until we know, and assuming based on a possible correlation could easily be just as negative as it is positive. Correlation does not equal causation, guys. Just because people who were accepted couldn’t access the button doesn’t mean that being able to access it means anything.
Let’s play a game: next person who comments about the EDII button fiasco loses. Ready? Set? Go!
My son received his acceptance letter today with Founders Scholarship for $25k per year. Good luck to everyone! The ED2 link was not working for us yesterday
@conflictedcollegegal6789998212 In Dallas as well, mail came, no letter.
@dayeshunlap that’s so weird. we’re right next to Louisiana…
@cheertrack0929 would you mind please sharing whether you received any merit $
Well as a way of distracting my mind off the wait I will completely give in to the Ed2 button conspiracy. So here is one to try: even though I do not have an ED2 button on my portal anymore, if I am logged in to the Wave Portal on my browser, and type in these words into Google in another tab: “tulane early decision 2 application form” the fourth search result is: https://apply.tulane.edu/register/?id= followed by a string of digits that I assume represent me. That site is my pre-filled ed2 form, with my name and email, with the submit button underneath (which I have not pressed). Anyone looking for a distraction or to deepen the conspiracy can try and report back, I would love to hear if everyone has access to this. I will even entertain the inevitable comments as to how far off the deep end I have gone.
@Tulhoy1 Just tried that and it works for me too. Ugh.
@Tulhoy1 you know, I’m not going to make fun of you. I actually admire your honesty. We’re all stressed like crazy.
Lol works for me too, just like yesterday.
Does this work for anyone who was accepted?
I have that too… idk what it menas tho since I didnt check yesterday if the ED2 button worked for me
Accepted EA into Honors program, the ED2 button didn’t work. 30k Scholarship. 35 ACT, 99 GPA, 10 APs, and loaded leadership and extra-curricular.
Got in with a 24 K scholarship. EDII did not work last night.
@maverick53 @dayeshunlap also in dallas and no letter today, the mail hasn’t come but my mom has that thing enabled where they send you pictures of the mail you’re gonna get that day and the tulane letter wasn’t in there. maybe they just haven’t gotten to the dallas area yet (hopefully)
