[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC was admitted to Tulane this year with nice merit aid. DC had less than perfect grades (but higher than a 3.0!) and a very high SAT. The pros are that it is a quality academic institution in a great location.  Also, it is one of the highest ranked national universities that provides generous merit aid. DC considered applying to Wake Forest, for instance, but only 3% of students receive merit aid there so Tulane was a better deal.

As other said, Tulane puts an emphasis on community service and has a great campus. Because of the New Orleans location, it also has students from absolutely everywhere, instead of being more regional, and that made it interesting. [b]For DC the negatives are that it doesn't seem to have great ties into the business world and the analytical majors[/b] (math, economics, engineering) seem weaker than the humanities.[/quote]

DC could try to network with andrew friedman (president of the dodgers, ex wall streeter turned baseball quant jock). friedman is in his mid-late 30's now and is pretty friendly. tulane alum.

Have DC write a physical  letter to andrew, and use a tulane envelope - andrew will most probably respond and perhaps could give some insight/help. [/quote]
