"It really seems to make a difference whether you get in or not is if you can have faculty or a student vouch for you. I don't have anyone, so we'll see if it works out. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"This is the first school i've rated lower than a positive, simply because the facilities were so bad. The building consists of small, cramped hallways, claustrophobia-inducing classrooms, and the tiniest student lounge for a class size of 150. It seems as if Tulane IS accepting students still, just not that many per week. The interviews are really short too. One interviewer was awesome and cared a lot about me, the other spoke about himself and the school the whole time. " Report Response
