Your google finger was broken apparently. Tulane has non-binding EA. Almost certainly the kid got in that way. Or they really got in ED, and Tulane will deal with it if she tries to withdraw. My understanding is a lot of school have agreed to boycott an ED candidate who withdraws, unless they are formally released for hardship/financial reason. This is so much of a thing that the DOJ is investigating on antitrust grounds.

So if she is waiting for other decision, it is almost certainly EA and what she is doing is completely kosher.

In any case, hit the like button (or don’t) on FB, type Cingrtas in the comments (or don’t). And more on. Not your cattle, not your rodeo.



+1 And ED decisions for Tulane came out yesterday. EA decisions go out in mid-December per their blog. Ya'll are insufferable.

Well, you googled WRONG. There is ED as well as EA at Tulane. Now are you embarrassed?????

I thought you couldn’t submit any other apps if you apply ED......the high school won’t submit transcripts, etc. Super tacky to post ED admit on FB.

True - but once offered admission, you can’t wait for other offers. You’re suppose to rescind all other apps per the contract.

The best approach is t just hit like and say nothing. The kids generally prefer we keep our mouths shut until they make their final decisions.

Oops - she is ignorant. Or, it’s EA, not ED. Which college?

Friend posted her daughter's photo with letter of acceptance to a school ED. Said it was her first choice, but still waiting for other decisions. Huh? Shouldn't she be withdrawing other applications? They are most definitely not financial aid applicants...definitely full pay.
