Tulane University of Louisiana Top Questions

tulane is in probably the most fun city in the country because of the leinent laws. new orleans is the best place to go to college because walking around with a beer outside is legal, bars dont close, etc.

- good mid-size school, not to large or too small - Tulane has a good name and a large alumni base, particularly in the south - it's located in Uptown New Orleans - a residential area of the city, meaning we have a campus but are also pretty close to downtown NOLA - it's a nice middle ground - there is a lot of school pride, but not very much is centered around sports - the last biggest controversies were the closing of the engineering school and Newcomb College after Katrina - Tulane is a great school located in the most unique city in America! :)

Many have next to no school pride, many ask "What has the school done to make me have Pride in the school???" Things could get better in many ways just by having people that know how to think in more than one way. There can be many ways to get things done, However, looking at only one thing or one way should not be happening.. That to me is like talking with someone that knows nothing or next to nothing about a topic you need to know about in as many ways as you find be it good, bad or whatever.. The lack of will to inprove and doing as much as could be done to inprove things on a daily base. Many things that are told to people about the school is questionable and misleading from what I have seen. They would say things would be done at a set time and it would not happen at that time. Many say "WHY should I trust that information??" along with " Ya, RIGHT!! when I see it!!"

In terms of the student body, although many kids are ridiculously smart and rich, everyone is laid back and there is little competition. Everyone knows how to have a good time and gets along well. People do not compete academically. People get their shit done well, and then go out and have a great time.

THE best city to go to college in hands down. i came home from school winter break my freshman year and while al my highschool friends were unsettled and homesick i couldn't WAIT to get back to new orleans. there is so much to do and see and it is the perfect place to be a young adult. i recommend doing your best to branch out of the tulane scene as well, go to the festivals, maybe a LSU game in baton rouge, eat at the restaurants, this city is amazing and never stops!!

The best thing about Tulane is its location. It has a campus but is located in the best city in the world, in the nicest neighborhood of the city. Plus, surrounding Tulane in the Broadway area, students dominate. Broadway is amazing and is such a fun social scene...so I would call it a mini-college town. I will always remember taking a picture on the Tulane sign with 21 friends on the afternoon of our graduation. All our families were there and a photographer who worked for Tulane happened to walk by and took so many professional photographs for us. It was awesome. She even put one on the Tulane website!

Excellent reputation in and outside of New Orleans. Students have a great relationship with the citizens of New Orleans.

Tulane is a great institution to attend, but like all universities, there are flaws. One of the biggest problems Tulane faces is their disorganization. The Unified graduation ceremony was long, disastrous, and boring. It wasn't structured and most students were not aware of how things would flow. Service at Tulane is slow and the workers in the LBC don't care to speed things up.

Tulane is the perfect size university! All professors are extremely accessible via email or office visit. My personal class sizes have ranged from 8 students to 100 students. I love Tulane and wouldn't change a thing! New Orleans is a very diverse city and attracts an eccletic bunch of intellectuals.

Tulane's size is ideal for me, you don't know everyone on campus, which is refreshing, but you can walk across campus and see a few people you know or have seen before. There is very little that I would change about Tulane, except maybe the on-campus food, but this obstacle is easily overcome because the school is in the middle of a culinary capital of the world, its easy to find good food in New Orleans. Tulane has a very good academic reputation, and is recognized around the country. Basically, New Orleans is the greatest city in the world, and anyone who goes down to Tulane soon feels this way too. In my mind, its the best possible place to go to school.
