its ranked as the 355 PT school in the country. LSU in new orleans is ranked in the low 60s


I think you're missing the point. Most of us went to LSU undergrad here...its ranking compared to others is shite. But you still got a great education.

Much higher cost in tuition as well as cost of living.


I ran the numbers...factoring in the extra 6 months you're in school at LSUHSC the cost difference is negligible. And St. Augustine apartments are way less than NOLA. Brand new 3BR in a safe area was less than $1000/mo.


And as I said earlier, I've seen below average PT's from St. Aug, and great ones as well. Same goes for LSUHSC. At the end of the day, working hard on your clinicals, passing your boards, and networking with the type of clinic you want gets you further than just graduating from a specific school.

tuition alone at st aug cost more than all cost at LSU in Shreveport or new orleans. I know this because i was accepted to all three programs and had the numbers in front of me. Its not even close.
