re: LSU Tuition just went over $6k

LSU is still much, much more affordable than its peer institutions - and all of its “in state” students have a substantial portion of that tuition covered because of TOPs.
Since it’s easier to get TOPs than to get into LSU and TOPs covers most of the tuition bill, students are mostly covering fees, housing, and books.
With that in mind, LSU is dirt cheap and an amazing value. They could add another $2500 in fees and still be a great value.
However, now that they’ve hiked tuition again, they’d better show continued progress in the rankings and quality.

Numbers continue to be listed in the thread but it's unclear if this is for a semester or a year? In-state or OOS? How does these compare with peer institutions?
College is without a doubt the greatest investment I have had in my life. College could cost $300K (for example...I haven't ever analyzed what the 'break-even' might be) for a degree and it would still be worth it.
I just finished paying more than $100K for a graduate degree out of pocket and it's a rounding error over lifetime earnings if I use the degree as it is intended (to enhance my career opportunities).
