What are your general comments?
Everything is really laid-back at Tulane! I had three closed-file interviews. Two were with faculty and one with a student. The student ''interview'' was combined with lunch. They say ''the lunch is the interview'', and it was very informal, really just a conversation and a chance for us (applicants) to ask questions and learn more. All three interviews were very low-stress and laid back. There seems to be a very strong religious presence here. One of my interviwers (with whom I had an excellent conversation) was the chaplain for the med school, and he is also on the admissions committee.
