If you are an applicant who has no idea who Jeff Schiffman is and have never read his blog, you likely have not done the research necessary to put together an application containing what Tulane is looking for in the first place.

Deferred ea applicant here. Does Tulane give full rides to international applicants?
It does say so in the Financial Form. But only Merit-based…
Chances? Good essay, but low stats, SAT 1440, ACT 31, GPA 3.5 UW, 3.8 W. Good extracurriculars and community service related to major, and commitment to extracurriculars and community service. Be blunt with me.
Your scores are good! Did you show demonstrated interest?
@2024collegegrad unfortunately no, I have been unable to visit the campus. I love this school and from what I’ve read, demonstrated interest is key. will this diminish my chances greatly?
While demonstrated interest would probably help, it wouldn’t make or break your decision. Also, things will probably be very different this admissions season compared to past years because of the virus, so maybe they will accept more. In addition to that, more people might get taken off the waitlist this year if people aren’t able to afford or travel to Tulane because of the virus.
Cool, thank u so much!
Does anyone have any idea if international transcripts with a GPA already provided converted to the US scale at Tulane? If so, how?
Anyone knows When will the decision result be released?
They will be released Tuesday March 31 but I’m not sure what time.
I was just looking through my application and hoping for a positive decision. I realized I put one of my standardized test scores against the wrong date. I figured I got confused because I picked the essay of the previous year which was higher and then chose inputted that date all through.
Is this something to be worried about? If so what do I do?
@waitinginfaith - what done is done, not a big deal on the missed date.
what time do we think its going to come out???
seems like decisions this year have been coming out at 3:30 for their time so 4:30 eastern time. so maybe that time tomorrow?
Tulane is out!!!
