Hey guys, I was wondering if Tulane is test optional for this application cycle due to COVID-19. Has anyone applied without submitting their test scores?
Yes, Tulane University is test-optional for the current application cycle. They implemented this policy in response to the pandemic, making it easier for students who faced challenges with standardized testing during this time. Many students have applied to Tulane without submitting test scores, and the university's admissions team evaluates these applicants based on other criteria like academic performance in high school, extracurricular involvement, and personal essays.
Keep in mind that if you believe your test scores are strong and would bolster your application, you can choose to submit them. The choice is ultimately up to you, based on what you think will present the strongest overall application. Good luck with your application!
