An Early-Decision Student Backed Out of Tulane. Tulane Punished the High School

While anything is possible, and we are just guessing, as you have seen, this is the problem with choosing to apply ED. Applicants who want to wait on merit offers should not be applying ED. Not saying it’s fair, it’s the nature of ED.

ED applicants choose to give up the ability to compare offers and know this when signing the ED agreement. It might happen by coincidence, if a merit offer arrives prior to ED2 results.
