WPCampus was able to secure low-cost on-campus lodging just a short walk away from the venue (two blocks).
Lodging will reside in Tulane Greenbaum Residence Hall. If nostalgia and inexpensive lodging is your thing, it’s a great opportunity to save money and enjoy a few days of on-campus life.
Nights available
You will be able to check into the dorm on Tuesday, July 11, and check out on Saturday, July 15, for a four-night stay.
You are welcome to arrive or leave anywhere between those dates. However, Tulane requires that we pay for the entire duration of our reservation.
Location and name of our dorm
We will stay in the Barbara Greenbaum House Residence Hall, only a few blocks from the main LBC venue.
You can visit the Tulane website for more details and a video tour.
