[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tulane “bought” better statistics by making the application free and by offering multiple Early plans.  Many more applicants, nearly none of whom ID Tulane as a first choice, and most of whom have been deferred.  This was a ranking-promotion move by Tulane.  Nothing more.

I disagree.

Tulane has a message to tell and they want it to resonate with their perspective students. DD showed genuine interest and was accepted with generous merit. We visited and ultimately decided it was too far from home but in our experiences Tulane did a lot right. They have strong messaging around community and giving back. That’s a nice message for young people to hear these days.[/quote]

I think of all the admissions presentation that I sat thru w/ 4 kids that the Tulane presentation was the one that stands out in my mind and definitely because of the service opportunities.  But, I did think the oldness of the campus was "yuck" and not charming.
