About this program
Run by cadre at Tulane University, NROTC Tulane University is the NROTC unit for New Orleans and surrounding Louisiana. The program dates to 1938.
Cross-town agreements bring Loyola University New Orleans, Xavier University of Louisiana, Dillard University, and Southern University into the unit's footprint. Most cross-town midshipmen keep their primary academics at the partner school and travel to Tulane University for ROTC class and lab.
The unit runs all standard NROTC scholarship channels: NROTC Navy Option (4-year), NROTC Marine Option, NROTC Nurse Option (where offered). Major-wise, midshipmen here cluster around engineering and physical sciences and computer science and cybersecurity, with cadre encouraging technical degrees where the cadet's career interests fit.
