Hey brentb, thanks for the reply.
LINK
- I saw this online. Last paragraph on 2nd page briefly discusses out of state tuition waivers that are available on a first come first serve basis. It does not provide any more info.
LINK
- The page outlines core and elective requirements, and also says that those without a business degree must take two additional foundation course. WHere do you see it is optional?

Anthony25, the document you posted refers to if you attend LSUS at the Shreveport campus while being an out of state resident. Not for online classes. Everyone gets the same low tuition. As for your second question, an email came out last week stating that the pre-reqs are optional. Here is the text:
On Behalf of the MBA Director:
The University has approved changes to the foundation courses for the MBA program. These foundation courses are BADM 700 Fundamentals Accounting/Finance and BADM 701 Fundamentals Economics/Statistics. Effective January 1, 2018, the current foundation courses will be eliminated and replaced with 4 one-credit hour courses that you decide whether you need or not. These classes will be offered on a pass/fail basis. This reduces the foundation credit hours in the MBA program from 6 to 4. More information will be provided about availability of these courses prior to registration for Spring AP1.
How does this affect you today?
• You are no longer required to take foundation courses, but if you do not have a background in Accounting, Finance, Economics, and/or Statistics, you are strongly encouraged to opt to enroll in the classes covering content with which you are unfamiliar.
• Potential Registration Considerations:
o If you were waived from the foundation courses because of previous course credit – no change
o If you have already taken the foundation courses – no change
o If you are enrolled in foundation courses – you may continue in the courses in which you are enrolled or drop those classes, select classes with no prerequisites, and pick up the new foundation courses in Spring 2018 or later
o If you have taken one of the foundation courses – you can take the remaining 3 hour foundation course during Fall 2017 or take 2 one-credit hour classes covering similar content later in your degree program
o If you want to take foundation courses but have not registered for them – you may switch to the optional foundation courses starting in Spring 2018 or opt for the 3-hour courses in Fall 2017
