👍 Great Fit If You Are:
Socially engaged learners
if you want your education to directly impact communities, Tulane makes that happen.
Culture-immersed students
if you love cities with music, food, and soul, New Orleans is your classroom.
Change-makers
if you’re motivated by inequality, climate, health, or justice, this school encourages your mission.
Warm-hearted leaders
if you want to lead with empathy, not just resume lines, Tulane builds that mindset.
Multi-disciplinary minds
if you want to mix policy, medicine, ethics, and art, few places are this flexible.
🚨 Not Ideal For:
Snow seekers
this is the Deep South: hot, humid, and storm-prone.
Hyper-elite chasers
Tulane is respected but doesn’t carry Ivy prestige nationwide.
Passive participants
the curriculum expects active civic involvement and personal investment.
Tech-only students
while strong in pre-health and social innovation, it’s not a Silicon Valley pipeline.
Rural lovers
this is a dense, expressive, unpredictable city; not a quiet campus bubble.
