LSU tuition is way more than 18k a year. Even students with in-state tuition still have to pay 12k to 14k a semester after scholarships and grants. That’s as much as a fricking down payment for a car. It’s absurd
Wrong. I just paid it. With tuition, fees, room and board right around 9500 this semester.

Just because you only paid $9500 a semester doesn’t mean all of the other in-state students are paying that same amount.

LSU website states $25k for 2023-2024 or $12.5k per semester. That's campus housing, meal plan, tuition and fees for 15 credit hours and doesn't not include scholarships (like TOPS) or grants.

So....1 year equals 2 semesters. $9.5k x 2 = $19k. A $6k difference. Is your child living at home? Didn't get a meal plan? Has TOPS or something else? Taking fewer credits?

DAMN Jake, you came out real good.

Alabama's tuition + fees are just under over $12,000 for Fall '23 semester NOT including room/board/food, etc.
