Of total admissions, 70% graduate within 6 years at LSU. Tech graduates 59%, then Nicholls at 53%, and ULL at 51%. 

Every other campus is below 50%, with LSUA having a pathetic 28% graduation rate.


You have to keep in mind that this uses IPEDs data that only counts those that enter the university as first time freshmen. Transfers don't count and have a much better graduation rate.

Sure, but the fact is, 53% of total admissions throughout the state don't graduate within 6 years. That's a stat that tells us what we already know - college is far more interested in your money than they are in whether or not you're prepared.
