Tulane and Emory are too selective for a 1300

Tulane is not. My DD's BF got in there with a SAT's in the 1200's

That is unrealistic. The 25th percentile for students admitted to the class of 2022 at Tulane is 1420. https://admission.tulane.edu/apply/getting-into-tulane

For class of 2022 enrolled students, the middle 50 percentiles are SAT EBRW 670-730 and SAT math 680-760. https://tulane.app.box.com/s/zwm37ymscy77bx5oh0elusqfcsnl66sz

So a 1300 is basically right below the 50 percentile of 1350.

Tulane is not that hard to get into. For a full paying OOS student, it is even easier.

...OOS is not a thing at private schools

Really? Tell that to the PA liberal arts schools. Of course they seek geographic diversity.

Wow. Congrats! Would you mind sharing her stats and the net price of all-in tuition, room & board after merit?

Thank you, all, for these ideas! I am researching now and may check back in with more specific questions!

Um, pretty much every second kid at Tulane is from a UMC area of NY/NJ/CT/PA/MD/NoVA/MA. Being from the northeast/Mid atlantic is not an advantage at Tulane, lol.

Your info is outdated

DS got in last year with an 1130. I agree not that hard. Still basically a big party school. We said no. He's at northeastern and loves it.

She wouldn't get into any of them with a 1300. Most are 10% of lower acceptance rates.

Um, Pitzer College is test-optional. And there are lots of 1300 kids at others.

Look at the videos on the school's admissions page. Seems like a complete joke. The school is going out of its way to say that it is a place to hang out with friends and play in the water. Seems like a waste of money and time.

My DC was waitlisted with a 32 ACT and good grades. It may be the softest of the Claremonts but it's still very popular, so nothing's a lock.

Ha. Before I opened this thread I was going to recommend CoC!

Queen's University in Charlotte. Smaller than what you're looking for, but maybe worth considering.
