The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Uptown / Carrollton
Very much their own self sufficient unit within the greater metro area, Uptown and Carrollton tone down the urban edge with a friendly attitude and collegiate feel. Home to Tulane and Loyola Universities, all the students living in the area ensure that Uptown and Carrollton stay youthful, cosmopolitan and vibrantly fun. Two of the liveliest thoroughfares for nightlife and socializing (and yes of course more of the city’s outstandingly good food and live music) are Oak Street and Maple Street. For a truly wild time, the expansive acreage of Audubon Park, with its zoo, golf course, and actual patches of swampy wetlands, means peace and quiet are never too far away.

So glad we had the opportunity to visit! Even though it was crazy hot, we really enjoyed visiting. Seemed like a great college campus!

We enjoyed visiting around the outside areas of Tulane after being at Audubon Park. We also visited the football and baseball stadiums.

Tulane university is outside of New Orleans and heading towards St. Charles. Great grounds and beautiful area. Worth a look. .

Went on a campus tour on August 15. The campus is absolutely gorgeous! Lots of green space and old buildings! Lots of coffee locations were available on campus and temporary classrooms fill once empty spaces due to social distancing guidelines. Tulane is still allowing students on campus for the fall semester and we were there on move in weekend. The student body seemed very lively and willing to follow the new guidelines. Only downside was that it was HOT outside.

We recently drove by this very beautiful campus of Tulane in New Orleans and marveled at the scenery of both the buildings on St Charles Have.

Oddly, we had stayed in the Garden District 2 years ago and never stumbled on Tulane. This time we were driving through and came across Loyola and then next up was Tulane. Drove around campus and got a good sense for the layout. Small school with all athletics on site. Pretty campus on the front end. Dorms look a little well worn. Sorority and fraternity houses are all close to campus. Right across from Audobon Park.
I know a student that came here and loved it and Princeton Reviews says these are some happy students and I do understand why.

You can take the St. Charles line from the French Quarter, uptown to this beautiful, historic campus. It's very walkable and has a huge bookstore with apparel and more.

TUlane as a school is one of the best in the south. Tulane as a collection of buildings is so very beautiful to walk around and visit. I took calculus here when I was a senior at De La Salle High School. Very fond memories of this school.

In the beautiful Garden District of New Orleans is Tulane University. Tulane is is a high energy college that has a lot to offer. It was founded as a public medical college in 1834 and became a comprehensive university in 1847. The school's law and medical school are among the best in the country. The school is Division I in sports and has form players in professional sports.

Hi. I'm planning to visit Tulane with my 17 yr. old (Junior) High School daughter... any suggestions for an evening or day activity that would be fun after we tour the University? Also, where would you stay to get "both" worlds?
