<p>I applied to Tulane early admission and I was deferred to regular decision. I just checked and it says that I am now on the wait list. Is there anything that I could do to up my chances on getting in now? What are the odds that I will be accepted from the wait list? </p>
<p><a href=“Tulane University Acceptance Rate | CollegeData”>http://www.collegedata.com/cs/data/college/college_pg02_tmpl.jhtml?schoolId=1555</a> indicates that Tulane offers waitlist to large numbers of students. E.g. out of 30,080 applicants, 8,203 admitted (1,712 enrolled), 3,483 wait listed (996 accepted wait list). The large number on the wait list means that even if Tulane experiences a lower than expected yield, it is unlikely that the chance of admission from the wait list is high.</p>
