Costs go up, tuition goes up. TOPS is great and all, but if you're that upset about $270 a semester then go to a cheaper school. Over 9 semesters thats still under $2,500. Any student that isn't disabled should easily be able to supplement $2,500 within a 4.5 year period with a part time job. LSU is a good school. Good schools have big expenses.

Option B: Get a small loan.

Where did I say I was upset? I think its funny.

The same people who bemoan the loss of TOPSa nd how it might impact students, the same people who tell you higher education is facing a crisis get everything they asked for and then deliver the coup de gras!!!

They raise fees 5%.

FWIW, I graduated a long time ago, my tuition was less than 270 dollars, and my dad was very appreciative of that fact.

And yes LSU is a good school, but never forget its a govt. institution who loves to spend more and more of someone else's money.
