The academics were absolutely stellar. Wide variety of classes with lots of flexibility to take courses outside of your primary disciplines. I was even able to double major AND minor! The professors are also fantastic; super knowledgeable in their field. Even the TAs and PhD students who taught courses were engaging and knew their stuff.
The diversity and social scene of Tulane could use a bit of help. For a school in one of the most diverse cities in the country, the student body was VASTLY white-passing. The university is taking measures to make Tulane more accessible to BIPOC, though, which is a fantastic move to see. The social scene can at times feel overwhelmed by Greek life, but only if you are in Greek life or have friends who are in it. The variety of clubs and student orgs that Tulane offers is sure to help just about anyone find "their people," though.

Tulane is very expensive, which means the facilities are very nice, the staff is wonderful, and the on campus living is pretty decent. Tulane is always under construction because of hurricanes in New Orleans and the damage that the city has received over many years. Overall, the culture at Tulane can be run by Greek life or not. I feel like it is up to you to find your people on campus through clubs or organizations that you are interested in. Tulane is a great time in a city you'll fall in love with!
Tulane University provides the perfect balance between a vigorous education and a fulfilling social life. I enjoy the beautiful campus and often take walks on the many sunny days that New Orleans experiences. The class sizes are perfect, even the large GE classes are a reasonable capacity. All of my professors have been overwhelmingly understanding and kind. Best school ever!
