Is Tulane just a rich kid school? Is there a significant number of lower income students that go to Tulane? Does all the merit money Tulane offers come at the expense of need based aid?

Over spring break last year, I visited Rhodes in Memphis thinking that I would love it. The prevalence rich snobby frat boys and southern belles, however, really turned me off. I’ve never suspected that Tulane was similar but I’ve recently gotten the impression that it is.

Can anyone let me know if Tulane has the same problems that Rhodes has? If they do, I really can’t see myself at Tulane.
