LSU is still considerably cheaper than colleges in other states. Louisiana needs to get rid of the TOPS program in order to compete with other institutions. It's ridiculous that a kid with a 3.0 high school GPA can get the majority of their school paid for by the state. There's a reason that we can't afford the facilities and faculty of other state schools..


for reference, Georgia Tech (a public school) has the following in-state costs:

$5,000 tuition per semester
$1,200 fees per semester

That's $6,200 per semester. There are no BA degrees that are offered, so at least most students who graduate will go into careers that are profitable.

Tech was more expensive than LSU when I was going through the process. Was cheaper for me to go to school out of state unless I wanted to just go to GA Southern.

My mom Graduated LSU, so I had the legacy scholarship back then. Pretty sure they got rid of that several years ago.

That's gone up over two fold in the past 15 years.
