<p>Jym, as the mother of a student attending Tulane you might have access to more recent data on admission. Unless I missed it --and I am not tracking Tulane very often-- Tulane has not released verifiable data for the 2008 cycle.</p>
<p>The last information from official reports seem to indicate:</p>
<p>PROFILE OF FALL 2007 ADMISSION </p>
<p>Admission Rates
Overall Admission Rate 44% of 16,967 applicants were admitted
Students Enrolled 1,964 (26%) of 7,526 admitted students enrolled
Early Decision
Admission Rate 39% of 207 applicants were admitted </p>
<p>However, we can safely agree that Tulane is a selective school that offers great benefits to the overwhelming majority of US high schoolers. Unfortunately, the benefits lose a lot their face value for applicants who seek the highly prestigious schools and have a low EFC.</p>
<p>Have a happy turkey day!</p>
