NEW ORLEANS, La. - Tulane University has been named a "Hot School" in Kaplan/Newsweek's How to Get Into College Guide for 2002.
Tulane is one of nine "Hot Schools" chosen from several hundred universities. The University was cited for having a 33 percent increase in applications in 2001 and for being a "academically superior university" in a great setting. The publication also noted Tulane has "small classes, plenty of contact with professors and solid programs in business, engineering, architecture and Latin American studies."
Keeping Tulane company as a "Hot School" are Hampshire College, Vanderbilt, Wesleyan University, University of Michigan, Oberlin College, Vassar College, Franklin Olin College of Engineering and Emory University .
The "Hot Schools" were revealed this morning on the Today Show and the list is expected to receive further publicity on CNN and daily newspapers across the country.
