<p>From the same chat, the question of lower cost schools did come up. Although I couldn't cut and paste from the session, I believe the answer was: if you wish to have credits transfer automatically and retain Tulane tuition aid, you would pay Tulane the full fall tuition and any other tuitions paid to another institution would be credited to the spring bill at Tulane.</p>
<p>That is what I read as well jmmom</p>
<p>Yes, that was it--because under those conditions, you ARE Tulane students taking classes at various other places ( which also makes sense of the policy of transferring all of those various places' courses in as pass/fail). Seems sound to me under the very unusual circumstances.</p>

<p>New Withdrawal Deadline Announced </p>
<p>In recognition of the fact that some parents and students are still exploring options for the Fall '05 and Spring 06 semesters, Tulane University has extended its withdrawal deadline until November 1. </p>
<p>The university is keenly aware that some of its students realized a substantial financial hardship as a result of this unprecedented natural disaster. To assist those students and their families in the recovery process, the university will also extend the payment deadline for any fall tuition owed the university until May 1, 2006. Our hope is that by providing the opportunity to defer the fall tuition obligation without a finance charge, all of our students will be able to continue their educational program in January without interruption when the university resumes classes in New Orleans. </p>
<p>Finally, later this week Tulane will issue a statement regarding the spring semester. This statement will describe opportunities for students to continue their studies at Tulane University in the Spring of 2006.

<p>In light of all this, I continue to think Tulane is acting in extremely good faith.</p>
