<p>@jkeil911 is absolute right about showing genuine interest for Tulane. When I finished all my apps, I decided to apply to Tulane because it had a free application and was in an interesting location. However, I didn’t “show interest” until a week up to the deadline and never visited. As a result, despite having what I considered to be pretty high stats for the school (above 75th percentile) I was waitlisted and eventually rejected. So if you are really interested in the school, look into it but don’t treat it as a safety.</p>
