"As Tulane shows a greater impact, more students have expressed a desire to come to Tulane, Fitts said. This year, the school received 42,000 applications, the most in its history, and about a 70% jump from five years earlier. The admission rate was just 13%.

While Fitts admitted that the school still struggles with diversity — data show that 69% of students at all of Tulane's schools combined are Caucasian — the school is increasing access, he said.

The study says that, on average, Tulane graduates with bachelor's degrees earn about $26,000 more a year than non-graduates."

NOLA

Those are insane application numbers for Tulane.

For some perspective LSU received 24,820 applications and admitted 18,025 for an undergraduate admissions acceptance rate of 76%.

Do not discount the impact of gentrification in Orleans Parish because it makes universities much more attractive to students.

Bc they go to work in nyc?

They’re also strapped with 150k in student loan debt for an undergraduate degree.

Do they even have an engineering department any more?
