Make way for a helluva Hullabaloo Hello!
Hullabaloo Hello is a celebratory welcome to Tulane University beginning when you arrive to campus, continuing throughout the first two weeks of classes, and concluding with First Fest and the Fall Activities Expo. Throughout the celebration, signature programs and events will introduce you to the people, peers, and places that encourage a successful transition to Tulane.
View the Hullabaloo Hello schedule below! All students will receive a personalized version of the schedule in August with assigned rotations and locations.
To help you stay on track with upcoming deadlines, we have created a New Student Checklist of important tasks to complete prior to your arrival. We highly encourage you to download the checklist and review it at the beginning of each month for a reminder of approaching deadlines.
