Congratulations Mia!
She will embark on a journey to become a Veterinarian!
Congratulations to Solee W. for getting the Dean's Honor Scholarship.
Honors Scholarship from Tulane University.
The Dean's Honor Scholarships are merit-based scholarships offered to incoming first-time freshmen applicants by the Office of Undergraduate Admission and cover full tuition for the four years in attendance.
Tulane University, ranking 45th in the nation, has an acceptance rate of 17% and only about 25 students were awarded this scholarship out of thousands of applications.
When asking Solee about her future plans, she stated, "As of right now, I'm still debating between two majors, but they are both in the science field. I plan to become a doctor one day and Tulane has exactly what I need to get there. I'm so happy and honored that I have the chance to go to such an amazing school!"
Congratulations to the Seniors Accepted to Uni!
