Freshman: Tulane University is so fun and lively. The classes are interesting and valuable, and the professors are very passionate and care about their students' success. The campus environment is amazing, and there is an abundance of student resources. The city of New Orleans is a blast, and uptown New Orleans is relatively safe.

Tulane University is a community, and I encourage anyone interested to apply. Roll Wave!... Read 1,657 reviews

Sophomore: I am attending Leavell College and have just completed my second year of undergrad work. What I like the most is the ability to complete online as well as the commitment of the instructors. I enjoy knowing that even miles apart, I can reach out and talk with my instructors at any time. Something to change would be the scholarships that are offered through their school. To make them available to the online students.... Read 58 reviews

Alum: I am a graduate of Xavier university of Louisiana, i graduated in spring of 2021 and honestly your time at Xavier is what you make it. I was a biology pre-med major and that track is not the easiest track to follow. The classes require a lot of time and focus. However the professor and your peers are there to help, go to the resource centers if you need help. The cafe decibels has good food on Wednesday and fridays those were my favorite days. The activities and student life on campus is 10/10 you have to get out of your dorm and meet people. Xavier focuses heavily on community service and has plenty of service opportunities. Our athletics is a pretty good program I was about of Gold Star Dance team and had a blast. All of our games are always heavily supported by our students. There are many organizations to join on campus. In closing the party life is amazing as well there will always be something for you to do, I mean you are in New Orleans. Hope you choose XU!...

Alum: The University of Holy Cross soon became my home away from home. Despite its size, the University offers quality programs in in-demand disciplines. The small classes sizes ensure that every student gets individualized attention and, at UHC, you’re not just a number on a spreadsheet. Attending UHC give you the best balance between school and social. Only a few miles from the city of New Orleans, UHC is small and far enough to focus on your education, but close enough to let yourself have fun and explore as well! If you are looking for an institution thar genuinely cares about you and your future, look no further!... Read 174 reviews
