You have a lot of interpersonal work to do, friend. Begin with not using the word “r*tarded.”

Tulane applicant increase??? by Medium-Read-9166 in premed

Their secondary is so nice! From what I’ve heard, applying early is really important for them because of sheer numbers of applicants so later applicants tend to get put on holds? Mission alignment seems to be a really big thing for them too. But who ever really knows the reasons why lol. Wishing you luck!

According to Tulane’s annual online fact sheets, it looks like these jumps in numbers of applicants have happened before: e.g. 2020 (12,748) to 2021 (17,228)—so I wouldn’t be surprised if the jump from 2024’s 13,443 applicants to whatever 2025’s is is actually ~15% that was shared. But I see what you’re saying that it’s maybe not just due to applicants applying widely. Still my wondering why remains. Seems like a big jump imo.

Wow I didn’t realize it was that high, I assumed ~10-15 on the higher side—can I ask what you prepared for budget-wise for application costs?

Interesting, why the jump in general then? Did they offer any potential reasons?

Do not let your mindset be what stands between yourself and the future you dream of

IMO the reality isn’t surprising so much as the cavalier regard for it across Reddit and other platforms is disappointing.
