1st Choice.

last minute additon, overall not very high on my list. I was accepted early action with scholarship offer of 15,000 annually (which is great but doesn't cover half the expense.)
February 12 2010
Seems like a great place to spend college time, and a good program too.
$20,000/yr scholarship (which only covers half the tuition though..)

Got 25k/year and honors!

Honors Program.

Not surprised about acceptance, but very surprised by the scholarship money because I wasn't expecting any. Tulane's my 3rd or so choice after Chicago and Hopkins, so I will definitely go here if it's cheaper than LA/Berkeley (and if my parents stop bribing me to go to school closer to home). I love the school's programs and like the community, so yeah :)

Received letter of acceptance, did not expect to receive scholarship. Extremely happy, because with need-based aid, it would most likely be full-tuition for me!

Really awesome school, it's a gem. The teachers were awesome, the students seemed really happy, the campus was beautiful, New Orleans is way cool, they just didn't have the music program I was looking for. Damn.

They didn't offer the East-Asian Languages. They gave really good financial aid though, which was really unexpected. I also didn't like Louisiana.
