Tulane RD Thread Class of 2022

waitlisted lololol

For those waitlisted, are you accepting or declining the waitlist?

lol um I applied early action, got deferred, now I just got rejected??? And people who got in have worse grades than I do??? Definitely something suspicious going on… probably because I’m asian.

I got waitlisted too! I only applied bc of the free application fee.
34 ACT
Rank: 6/526
12 APs
GPA uw/w 95.6/101

waitlisted…4.5 GPA, IB program, even told my admissions counselor after I was deferred EA that if I could afford Tulane I would certainly attend. Incredibly disappointing, as it was my top choice, but such is life! I’ll be accepting a scholarship at WashU instead

lmao WL…got into JHU & Vanderbilt with a scholarship tho what

Waitlisted as well, 32 ACT and 3.8 uw gpa but rigorous courses/extracurriculars/etc. Did my best to show interest but couldn’t visit. It is very eerie that every single one of us got waitlisted. Do you think they’re just doing waitlists right now and nothing else? Because this seems odd.

I hate when schools like Tulane waitlist/deny so many people with high stats. Many of these people might have chosen to attend Tulane (including myself), so the school is only missing out on having many high-achieving applicants attend their university. And yes, @WiscoRunner, it seems like they are only releasing waitlists and possibly some rejections right now.

I just got rejected with higher stats than most of the waitlisted people above smh

Lol. Is everyone getting waitlisted?

Also for whoever asked, I haven’t done anything yet but I will most likely be taking myself off the waitlist. Need significant merit to attend Tulane which obviously won’t happen if by some miracle I were to get off the waitlist, so good riddance. I’ll go to a school that wants me and that’s okay. lol

waitlist, 1520/5.8uw rank 5/475. 20AP’s by the end of Senior Year. Extremely strong leadership and ec’s.

WashU is amazing though!!! You’ll love it there.

Smh. The majority of you above are BEYOND qualified.

Waitlisted
1510 sat, 97 gpa
Submitted my test scores 2 months late oops

Waitlist. AA Male, 32 ACT, 4.0 UW, 4.8 W. Very strong EC’s, essays, recs if I do say so myself. Tulane was my first deferral so I was very unconfident at first but I have since been accepted to Vanderbilt, UNC (full scholarship), Duke, and UCLA. I didn’t show interest but emailed my counselor. Whatever happens happens though, so good riddance. My fellow waitlists, I know we will all be successful at another institution of our choice. This decision is not indicative of your true abilities.

@Pastpower Congrats on your acceptances, those are amazing schools!! Vanderbilt is fantastic, that’s the last school I’m waiting to hear from.

If I have not got a portal update, is that a good sign?

@WiscoRunner Thank you very much, and same to you. Best of luck with your remaining colleges.

Good luck to everyone in their college careers!
