Can you believe that Move-In Day is almost here? The Tulane campus is excited to welcome your class, the Class of 2020, as the newest members of the Tulane community. As you make your final preparations, you are most likely filled with many emotions. Transitions will do that. Rest assured that whether you are excited or nervous, anxious or stress-free, traveling alone or with your entire extended family, you will be greeted on Move-In Day by the TU Move Krewe, your Resident Advisor, Orientation Coordinator, and a community ready to help you get acclimated to your new home.

Remember the NSO Guidebook you received when you visited campus this summer or in the mail if you were unable to join us? Make sure you bring it with you to campus and are referencing it often. It's packed with helpful information.

We look forward to your arrival next week (OR this weekend for those of you participating in our EXPLORE Programs) and to kicking off Fall Welcome (#TUFW16). So much awaits you and we can't wait to share in the excitement with you. 

As always, please reach out to us should you have any questions, comments, or concerns. We're available by phone at (504) 865-5180 or email at orientation@tulane.edu.
