Tulane University, located in New Orleans' historic Uptown district, occupies a 110-acre campus characterized by oak-lined walkways and a mix of Gothic and modern architecture. Founded in 1834 as the Medical College of Louisiana, Tulane became a comprehensive private research university and emerged as a leading academic institution in the Gulf South region. The university maintains selective undergraduate admission standards and is particularly recognized for its programs in public health, architecture, law, and business, while also offering distinctive interdisciplinary opportunities through its Newcomb-Tulane College. Tulane provides guaranteed housing for first- and second-year students across its residential colleges and dormitories, with many upperclassmen choosing to live in off-campus neighborhoods. As a member of the American Athletic Conference, Tulane's Green Wave teams compete in NCAA Division I athletics, with football and basketball games serving as significant campus events.
