Yeah I just want to clarify -
I think my host was definitely out of the norm. She was nice and everything, but her and her roommate were basically chatting the whole time within themselves, and had left us with their guy friends who were also hosting, but their guy friends were REALLY nice and helpful so it definitely made things better. I think the kids I was with were also kind of out of the norm as well, just bad luck I guess, that’s how I’m trying to think about it because I really loved the academic program at Tulane…and overall, that’s why you go to college!
I do think there was nothing special about the school itself popping out at me though, cause I’m not someone who cares particularly lots about weather. The academic program definitely caught my attention, because I know I could thrive in it. The social scene comes after, I guess. I won’t get to visit NOLA again so I’m going to have to make my decision based on this! But thank you so much for your kind words, gabby, I wish I had a host like you or the one that dungareedoll mentioned because that would have definitely sold me on Tulane. I told my host going in that this was the swing night for me, and her guy friends definitely helped me out by telling me about Tulane, but she didn’t particularly do much. I just remain “unswung” per say, haha.
