Tulane pairs the personalized attention of a small liberal arts college with the resources of a large research university. That means there is always something to explore here, whether it’s mapping the neural connections of the brain or reimagining urban living, our 8:1 faculty-student ratio and average class size of 20 ensures you will have guidance and support from our world-class faculty.

PUBLIC SERVICE

Tulane was the first major research institution to incorporate service learning into the curriculum. Tulane has been recognized at the #1 Most Engaged in the Community by The Princeton Review for several years.

CLIMATE & CULTURE

The first thing you may notice about Tulane’s campus is how green it is.

Professors teach classes outside year-round, enjoying the warm weather and the shade from the hundreds of historic oak trees rooted across our campus. When you’re ready to take a break from studying, it certainly doesn’t hurt to live in the #3 Best College City according to The Princeton Review. New Orleans culture is unlike any other with endless festivals celebrating food, music and art.

“I knew Tulane would push me out of my comfort zone and help me grow as a person and as a leader. There’s so many opportunities that come from being here at this school and in New Orleans. The larger umbrella of the university means a robust support network and plenty of avenues to explore academic interests. There’s also an incredible architecture school that’s established as a leader in public interest design.”
