[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People keep mentioning Tulane. I’m not sure Tulane gave as much merit aid in 2021 as years past.[/quote] There are threads on college confidential regarding admissions and merit aid at Tulane. My impression (fwiw) is there is a sweet spot. ACT between 31-33 plus high but not perfect gpa plus some APs may trigger merit aid. But the key is to show lots of sincere interest in attending (by writing a Tulane-centric essay, attending admissions events, etc.). They seem to yield protect against those with very high stats or otherwise are likely to choose to go elsewhere. They offer merit aid as an incentive to those they really want to attract and that they think will in fact enroll. [/quote] +1. Tulane parent here. DC got substantial merit with 33 ACT and 3.85 uw gpa with 7 or 8 APs. Also Tulane is trying to increase diversity, so that could be a factor as well. [/quote]
