Im one of the ones that took advantage of it and jumped ship. I would have stayed for at least a little while if that requirement was there though.
Do you know how many people got a free college degree in Louisiana then jumped ship to never pay state or local taxes again?
The rules initially were soft which allowed droves of students to flunk out after semester 1 or 2. The initial TOPS minimum score was a 17. It was a joke and they paid dearly for it.
eta: i guess youd have to have some sort of thing added in there to account for what jobs are needed in the state.

Understood.
Same here, graduated, wife graduated, peace out to Texas.
Never paid a dime to Louisiana. I remember laughing about it when I 22 trying to figure out how they expect this to work considering the lack of white collar work within its own state.
Doesnt matter now.
