re: Herb Vincent (LSU AAD) clears up TM7s status w/ LSU...Discredits GG!

Hopefully, my 5 minutes of research can end this conversation:

Here ( LINK) is the current fee schedule at LSU. Keeping in mind these are semester fees (not yearly), only the fall semester would be due soon, there would be no requirements for TM to remain a full time student and LSU currently has programs in place to put students on a a payment plan so that all would not have to be due up front..

Eligible student can defer 50 percent of the current semester charges. Payment of 50 percent of current semester charges and any prior account balance must be received by the payment due date. Note: A $15 service charge will be assessed on all deferments. The deferred payment plan may be selected via PAWS or myLSU from the "Defer Payment/Payroll Deduct" application.


In addition to the opportunity to defer 50% of the payment, the ability to pay by credit card, lines of credit and private loans from personal banks or credit unions, LSU also offers an emergency loan for up to $300 for undergraduate students. Other types of financial assistance are here: LINK



So, no, I have no worries whatsoever, and there is no evidence whatsoever, to cause any concern than TM and his family (one of whom is a former King of Zulu and employee of UPS) which paid over $7k a year to send him to St. Aug cannot come up with $350 - $1,750. If after I knew all of this info I STILL had concerns, the fact that after three days of discussing and weighing options, TM and his family are still actively discussing attending LSU and paying tuition would erase my doubt.

But if you want to worry about what might be, for no reason at all, go ahead.
