[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not surprising at all. In fact, Tulane has been predicting it all year if you have been listening. Tulane has a new Dean of Admissions this year. He announced early on that his goal was to increase the number of first gen, minority, international and local/Louisiana students. To achieve this goal he was going to accept more students EA and RD (they accepted 400 RD this year which is a lot more than previously). I think if you are admitting more first gen or minority students that may need to compare financial aid offers, your admit rate will increase because you are admitting more from non-binding rounds.[/quote]
Only 400 RD is insane and a complete manipulation of ED. The fact that is supposed to be an improvement is even crazier. [/quote]
but it worked! DCs guidance counselor loves to use Tulane as an example of a fine school that has absolutely manipulated ED to get pumped up in rank --"it's a fine school, but not drastically better than it was 10 years ago" [/quote]
