Loyola New Orleans DNP Summer/Fall 2013

BORN_2BRN- I am at Fort Polk LA which is about 4 hours away. I just need to find a hotel.

Motherofhen-since you are from the area can you recommend some places to stay that are fairly close to the school that are reasonably priced? I have never been to NO and I will be coming there alone...hubby has to stay home with my son who has school. We were going to have a little family vacation but with 3 weeks of school left for the year I don't want to take him out for a week since we moved here in the middle of the school year anyway.

dnt8178, I'm about the same your distance between school and my house. I've never step foot in New Orleans before. Only drove by once. My husband if he was here would have taken me but he won't be able to make it. Yeah, I would like also know a nearby hotel with reasonable price to stay during orientation days.

The Hampton Inn on St Charles Avenue is closest- there are small bed and breakfasts throughout town, not sure of the price point though. I would look on the Internet and see what is reasonable. With it being around graduation and after the second weekend of Jazz fest occupancy may be a little full. Let me know if y'all have questions! I've lived here for a loooong time!

Hello everyone! I have also been accepted to the BSN to DNP program this year! Congratulations to all of you who have been accepted! I am looking forward to meeting each of you. Have any of you figured out where you will be staying for orientation?

dnt8178 · Mar 23, 2013

Hello stutztootz congratulations to you as we'll. I have been looking online but not being from the area I don't know what is close and safe! I looked online at the school calendar and unless they change something the dates are May 6-9. If anyone knows a good place to stay or knows any other students that were admitted that could give us some insight let us know.

I also need lodging information the closest and safest too.

I am still doing a bit of research on the area as well. It looks like prices are a bit steep, but with commencement I guess that is to be expected. I will let you all know if I find anything reasonable!
