College tuition is out of control. That’s absolute insanity for a run of the mill degree.

It's exactly 10,000 per semester for out of state, tax, I mean tuition. In other words, students from Alabama pay 20,000 less per year than out of state students for the same exact experience and education! This is pretty much true no matter the public school. If you cross state lines, it's a 20k tax per year!


it's unfair...I don't think college is all that bad if you take that off the table, what makes college expensive are the living expenses... Tuition is still like 6k a semester, that's not bad at all.

I am not even going to say what Universities give cheerleaders per semester but it's essentially zip...

Cheerleaders have specific workouts that are monitored, they practice 4-6 days a week depending, they put on that uniform a lot for a lot of events...they have to make their grades, they have strict rules to make sure they never embarrass the university... it's a job when you get right down to it...representing the brand

Most cheerleaders love it, don't get me wrong but they absolutely deserve money towards paying for their education given how much they give of their time to the university...Did I mention the injuries that Cheerleaders suffer? I've seen plenty of ACL's,broken fingers, ankle injuries, achilles that require surgery.

Why no or small amount scholarships?
In part because the NCAA has not officially endorsed Cheer as a sport... though they do compete against other SEC schools... but it's like only one event because college cheerleaders have so many obligations.

The cheer teams around the country usually have 1 head coach a couple of assistants, trainers, the tryouts are ridiculously competitive...a lot of planning goes into game days...


So when you see the LSU cheerleaders, let them know you appreciate them...
