Student Affairs T1 Retreat + Parent Orientation

Saturday, August 3rd, The Office of Admissions and Student Affairs welcomes all parents and incoming students to join us for the T1 Retreat and Parent Orientation.

Parents are invited to a parent orientation where they have an opportunity to meet the Dean of the Medical School and other members of the faculty and staff while students take their White Coat photo in the Murphy building. A light breakfast will be served and a pop-up shop with exclusive Tulane Medical School merch will be available!

The T1 Retreat is a student-only event for all new and returning first-year students to get to know one another and engage with the unique history of New Orleans, where students will be getting their medical training over the next 4 years.
