People love to hammer the LSU Lazy River… but calling out LSU for being needlessly expensive to students is more than a bit disingenuous. The truth is LSU is pretty cheap compared to most universities and TOPS covers a large portion of students.



What schools are you using as "most universities"? The only school my kid got in that cost more than LSU was Columbia after all of the scholarships/TOPS came into play. Tuition wise LSU isn't terrible. The amount of money they give out for merit is laughable compared to every other school in the state. Their dorm fees are what really drives the price up. LSU's dorms are 3-4 times more than LA Tech for comparison. Problem is Tech's are nicer as well.

Strictly tuition wise, I agree LSU isn't crazy high. Total overall cost, it added up quickly to being far more than the other SEC schools we looked at as well as in state schools.

Does LSU still require freshmen to live on campus? I remember that was a thing when I applied 20years ago.
