Go Off Campus
Tulane has only one dining hall (Bruff Commons) but a bunch of other places to eat around campus. The food at Bruff is nothing special and pretty much just like any other college campus dining hall. The meal options do get a little repetitive but the food is still decent. There are 2 PJs Coffee Houses on campus, and the RAT in the student center (open till 4am) has the best fast food around (with some healthy options of course). The LBC Center for University Life also hosts a variety of dining options in its food court. Students also frequently utilize the plethora of off campus restaurants that have some of the best food in the country.

Houses
Off campus housing usually comes in the form of rented houses. While you can find a place Downtown near the French Quarter, most students stay in the more upperclass uptown area that the campus itself is in. Broadway (the road that runs parallel to the university) contains most of the off campus houses and most of the Fraternity an Sorority housing. There are a bunch of great off campus options in the Uptown area which is the safest place to be in new orleans. Things may get pricy but its easy to find roommates to defer the cost.

NEW ORLEANS!!
New Orleans is in a sub-tropical climate region, and offers great weather year round. While it is humid the heat is great. It does get a little chilly from december to march (around 45 degrees as a low) but overall the weather is fantastic and is definitely one of the best parts about Tulane.
