Tulane is definitely worth applying to and seems like a good fit overall. Very hard to guess on merit aid in his case but I will venture around $25K. If so, then you are at $52K and so are still about $13K short. But as someone else mentioned, apply for FA anyway. The worst that can happen is that you are right and get nothing. He should apply EA as soon as the applications are available. He could hear back as early as mid-October, including merit aid. At least then he would know something. If he decides to go that direction, PM me and I can provide some advice to maximize his application chances.
