Hullabaloo Hello is a celebratory welcome to Tulane that begins the moment you arrive to campus. This celebration encompasses move-in, orientation programming, signature welcome events, and so much more. Throughout the experience, you will be introduced to the people, peers, and places committed to supporting your transition. Plus, there will be a parade of opportunities to build community with your classmates.

In preparation for your arrival, please review the First-Year Student Hullabaloo Hello Schedule below. This detailed schedule overviews your day-to-day programming, meetings with your peer leaders, and the many opportunities to connect with the Tulane community, campus resources, and your class. As your move-in day approaches, you will receive a personalized version of the schedule. Keep an eye on your Tulane email inbox for more details!

As a new Tulane student, your voice counts!
|
During Hullabaloo Hello, you will join the long-standing tradition of Tulanians’ participation in the First-Year Survey, a national survey that gathers information about incoming college students. This is the first of many ways we will ask for your input as a Tulane student. We ask that you regard this, and any future questionnaires, as an opportunity to contribute important insight on your experiences and how Tulane can best meet your needs. Faculty and staff truly do utilize any information you include to adapt and modify our campus. We thank you in advance for your participation in the First-Year Survey!

Meet the First-Year Five! Otherwise known as the FY5, these five sophomores are your student guides to the ultimate first-year experience. By sharing personal stories, the FY5 aim to create a supportive community that eases the transition for incoming students and fosters a sense of belonging within the Tulane community.
