Thanks! I feel like she might have moved on in her heart already for 3 other schools since it has taken so long. We shall see what happens! We kind of found out too late that demonstrated was so important! Also, not sure the test optional decision will have helped. Thanks again!

Itās too bad; my daughter started out with Tulane as her first choice, but we didnāt let her apply ED. Now she no longer wants Tulane because sheās heard that they fill most of their class from EDs and she feels like sheās an afterthought. I told her itās just Tulaneās way of playing the numbers game, but sheās not budging, and meanwhile, we still havenāt heard from Tulane so sheās moved on. Iām kind of bummed because we both liked the school a lot, but oh well, itās been a crazy year! Would have loved visiting NOLA ā congrats to those who will be there!

Not sure what she considers āmost of the classā, but last cycle Tulane admitted 51% through ED. Thatās the first time it has ever exceeded 50% and is still less than many schools of similar selectivity.
Earlier in the thread, there was a quote that Tulane expects to accept 55 - 58% of their class from ED this year.
RD were released today
On that thread, looks like every single person got waitlisted or rejected

My son just applied ED to tulane for fall 2023. He has shown a ton of DI, went test optional, and doesnāt have a stellar gpa but did the why tulane and other 2 optional essays. In the meantime is there anything else he can do?
Good morning. Checking back to last years thread to see if anyone did Destination Days last year. DS was admitted for Fall 2023 (Architecture) and weāll be going down for first visit mid April. We havenāt seen an agenda (yet) so not sure how comprehensive the event is. Any opinions - positive or negative - appreciated.
My son and husband went, but for the Spring Scholars event. If you go, youāll end up with a student enrolled. They do an incredible job at these.
My son is also architecture! He went to Barcelona for Fall, and loved it!

How did your son find a roommate for Rome? I am assuming he roomed with other Tulane Spring Scholars? Thanks!
Through mutual friends - we live in the same city so having so much commonality was a nice way to start the adventure. I know that kids met at the accepted students weekends for spring scholars and/ or started connecting online.

Any insight into the agenda for Destination Tulane accepted student program? I want to make sure DS has opportunity to meet with a couple of the programs directly (at some programs this seems to be part of the day, others not). Any other things to be aware of would be appreciated! Weāll be going down for 4/22 and need to make a decision very quickly after.
