<p>So does anyone think that Tulane will see a jump in the US News rankings coming out this summer due to the school's recent resurgence? I believe that the entering freshmen class in 2008 won't be part of the rankings for another full calendar year. I think the 2009 rankings will be based on the entering freshmen of 2007, someone correct me if I'm wrong.</p>
<p>back to 45th at least!</p>
<p>Where did you see this? Has 2009 rating come out yet?</p>
<p>my estimate</p>
<p>I'm thinking we'll move up a little in the rankings that will be released in August. Hopefully back to around 44 or 45. I expect a nice jump in the rankings next summer though, when this exceptional 2012 class is factored in for admissions statistics and as the school continues to generate positive hype. Hopefully we can climb back into the 30's like we used to be before Cowen took over.</p>
