Company Description

New Orleans is a cultural epicenter of the United States and offers our students unprecedented opportunities for civic engagement and professional development. Forbes Magazine has rated New Orleans the fastest growing city in the United States and among the top 30 cities in the United States for business and careers.

U.S. News rated New Orleans number 2 on its list of cities that are magnets for opportunity, attracting ambitious, educated individuals while also being amongst the most culturally vibrant cities in the country.

Four years in a city like New Orleans will give students the opportunity to immerse themselves in an entirely unique culture while being a part of one of the largest and most successful urban renewals in the United States.

They will be able to explore several of the most stunning parks in the United States, attend cultural festivals on the weekends, and taste cuisine that can be found only in New Orleans.
