<p>To the OP:
The only way to know if Tulane is right for you is to visit the school and the city. There are also many resources available to your parents to provide the answers you need. I highly recommend that you put them in contact with the admissions office and have them speak to staff as well as volunteer parents.</p>
<p>From my family’s firsthand experience - it’s an excellent school in a wonderful, unique city. There are thousands upon thousands of devoted, successful, happy alumni and families that have been part of the Tulane experience. If you’re interested, visit and decide for yourself.</p>
