Medieval and Early Modern Studies

MEMS is a multidisciplinary program with a focus on the history and cultures of the medieval and early modern world. The Program consists of faculty and students from diverse departments within the School of Liberal Arts (Art History, Asian Studies, Classical Studies, English, French and Italian, Germanic and Slavic Studies, History, Jewish Studies, Music, Philosophy, Political Science, Spanish and Portuguese) and offers undergraduate major and minor concentrations, as well as graduate degree programs in affiliated professors' home departments. We regularly sponsor conferences, colloquia, and presentations by scholars around the world.

If you’re working toward a bachelor’s degree, your first stop is our admission office. Last year, more than 150 international students pursued undergraduate degrees at Tulane. Let our counselors help you with entry requirements, academics, living in New Orleans, tuition, and more. (Don’t rule us out based on cost: We offer up to $23,000 in need-based financial aid to international students who qualify and who have not already been awarded that amount or more in merit scholarships.)

The 2023 freshman application is open.
We accept both the Common Application and our own online application.
