[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My high stat kid got deferred. She was upset at first as her stats were significantly above the averages in Naviance. But she never visited or showed any real interest. Unless she gets accepted with a phenomenal package, she won’t be going there. I think Tulane admissions had figured all this out when they deferred her. [/quote]

Same to our close friend’s son. They knew what they were to him and weren’t having it. [/quote]

Same here for our son who had stats way above their average. Upon deferral, they ask the student to reiterate interest (and they urge you to visit); they are very clear that if you fail to do so, you have virtually no chance of getting in RD. My son had lost interest by that point since he was admitted to other places he preferred EA, so he didn’t reiterate interest and he will be rejected.

Seems to me that Tulane is playing a ludicrous game very well. Along with other “rising” schools in a similar boat, they are offering lots of merit aid while doing anything possible to protect their yield.[/quote]
