About Off-Campus Housing Near Tulane University of Louisiana
Tulane University sits about 13,900 students into Uptown New Orleans, a stretch of grand oak-shaded streets along the St. Charles Avenue streetcar line. The campus faces Audubon Park across the avenue, 350 acres of lagoons, live oaks, and a running loop, with the Mississippi River beyond. New Orleans seeps into daily life: green streetcars rattle toward the French Quarter, brass bands turn up in the neighborhood, and the calendar bends around Mardi Gras, when parades roll right down St. Charles in front of campus. Nearby, the Riverbend along Maple and Oak Streets keeps students in local shops and music, while Magazine Street runs miles of independent storefronts. It's flat and walkable, so students bike, walk, or hop the streetcar.
Tulane University of Louisiana Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
Tulane runs one of the stricter policies in the country: students who started in fall 2023 or later must live on campus for their first three years. Most students stay on campus through those years before moving off.
Off-Campus Eligibility
You can request to move off if you live with a parent or legal guardian within 50 miles of the Uptown campus, turn 22 before the first day of fall classes, are legally married before June 30, are the legal guardian of a minor, are studying abroad on Tulane credit, or live in approved Greek housing. Once cleared, most students at Tulane head into Uptown and the Riverbend.
Lease Timing
New Orleans rentals run through private landlords and management companies, so expect a credit and income check, a guarantor or cosigner, and a security deposit. The housing stock is largely historic shotgun houses and converted doubles, so read the lease for who handles utilities, flood and renters insurance, and repairs, and ask about the building's history with storms and humidity.
