Willow Residences

Willow Residences, on the corner of Willow Street and McAlister Drive, is one of Tulane's latest and most exciting residential communities. Willow Residences houses 318 students in four buildings. WIllow's design has garnered awards from the national design community.

The three buildings facing McAlister Drive are similar in design. Each building has two room suites consisting of either two double rooms sharing a bath, two single rooms sharing a bath, or one single room and one double room sharing a bath. Each floor has its own social lounge, kitchen and study rooms. As with our other halls on campus, the front doors are locked 24 hours a day and residents gain entrance with their Tulane ID cards. In the first building you will find a cybercafe , a Computer Concierge center, and a coffee house. The desk service area for Willow and Aron Residences is located in the second building.

Theme Residence: Leadership Village
The Leadership Village, tucked away behind the front buildings, is located in a smaller building which houses 20 students in single room suites and 40 students in two-story, double occupancy, loft suites. These loft-style suites boast spiral staircases and third story balconies. Acceptance to the Leadership Village is by application only.
