Incoming Class is Huge, Both Literally and Figuratively

Thanks fallen, that is interesting, I figured the admission rate would have dropped since applications were up and the rankings were up. I know this is anecdotal, but in my daughter’s graduating class, we know of 3 boys that applied to Tulane and one other girl . One of the boys was rejected, two were waitlisted and then also rejected , and the one other girl was accepted. The girl that was accepted is going to a different school. Two of the boys were really disappointed to be rejected as Tulane was their top choice. They both had near 4.0 unweighted gpa’s and 33 and 34 ACT’s. Having only been through the admissions process once, knowing these kids, I thought Tulane’s acceptance rate would be a lot lower this year. Really relieved my daughter somehow made the cut. She attends a very competitive small school public with only 60 kids per class so they all know everything about each other. My daughter is excited about going to Tulane. Tulane seems huge to her after such a small high school.
