The Village hosts a diverse range of residents from all over the world and across the United States, and we see this as a true strength of our community. To ensure fairness, we don't give preference to any group over others. Therefore we encourage all applicants to submit the relevant forms as early as possible to avoid disappointment.

Our residents attend the University of New Orleans, Dillard University, Delgado Community College, Southern University New Orleans, Xavier University, Loyola University and Tulane University to name a few.

Many interns and medical and nursing students attending Oshners or LSU New Orleans live in our community on a long term or short term basis.

If you'd like to share an apartment with a friend, please specify this on your roommate matching form.

The sooner you make your application with your friend and make the request, the more likely we can place you in the same apartment.  Don't wait until late in the season, as it becomes harder for us to accomodate special requests when we have limited space remaining!

A roommate matching service is available.  We also alow you to identify your roommate if you know someone you would like to live with in your apartment.

You can fill out your roommate matching form here.

Broadband connectivity is available in every bedroom at the Village. Internet packages are provided for UNO students through their Resnet accounts. Please contact University Computing & Communications at (504) 280-6347 or visit them at http://ucc.uno.edu.
