Are you from Louisiana?
Our
Focus Louisiana
program encourages our best home-grown talent to study here.
Are you a home-schooled student?
Home-schooled students have the same application requirements as students from traditional schools. However, we do have some recommendations for the admission process based on successful homeschooled applicants who have been admitted in the past. These recommendations can be found on our
Home-schooled Students page
.
Are you an international student?
If you attend school or hold primary citizenship from outside the U.S., the undergraduate admission process is largely the same as it is for domestic students, though there are a few
additional requirements and forms
.
Are you interested in transferring to Tulane?
Every year, we welcome more than 150 transfer students to Tulane, most of whom have cumulative college/university grade point averages of 3.0 or higher. Details on applying to transfer to Tulane as a full-time undergraduate can be found on our
Transfer Students page
.
Applying for Financial Aid & Scholarship Applications
After you submit the Common Application, you should submit a CSS Profile and a FAFSA (if you are a U.S. citizen or eligible resident). These two applications will enable us to consider you for all forms of financial aid. Additionally, Tulane has a separate scholarship application, which can be submitted online via your application status portal.

Need to Send Documents?
We strongly recommend sending any additional admission application documents through your school's counselor, who can transmit them via Naviance, SCOIR, or Slate.org. If necessary, you may send PDFs to
submit@tulane.edu
but only after you have submitted a Common Application. If you are unable to send documents using the above directions, this is our mailing address:

Social Media Policy
Tulane University strives to make our campus inclusive, safe, respectful, and equitable. While we do not actively view social media profiles, we cannot ignore any inappropriate behavior that is brought to our attention; any such behavior may impact a previously rendered decision.
Graduate & Professional Admission
Each school at Tulane administers its own admission process for graduate students. Contact the school you’d like to apply to directly, or visit the
Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies
for more information.

We do not require teacher recommendations (only a counselor recommendation), but we are happy to review additional recommendations submitted on your behalf.
Your recommender or counselor may submit additional recommendations in PDF format through Naviance, SCOIR, Slate.org, or via email to
submit@tulane.edu
.
Record Retention
The Office of Undergraduate Admission follows the record retention guidelines set forth by AACRAO (the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers). For applicants who enroll, most application materials are retained until three years after graduation. Documents that do not fall into this category are the application, which is retained for one year after the first enrolled term, and letters of recommendation and reader forms, which are retained until the point of admission. For applicants who do not enroll, all documents are retained for one year after the application term.
