I hate to say it, but this is 100% true. And the degree will be just as quality as an LSU degree.

I know. He qualifies for a scholarship package that with room and board would be cheaper than LSU to attend, by a mile.

But...he hates the Tide

Everybody always talks about how football has increased enrollment at Bama, but they have some big initiatives to get out of state kids with high scores.

yeah, my niece is going to alabama as they are giving her so much $$. Both her parents, 3 of 4 grandparents, 3 of 4 aunts/uncles, all went to LSU but she is going to bama.

This is the same thing LSU did for me. I graduated with great grades / high scores on SAT. I got a few thousand from UT / Georgia Tech - LSU gave me like $15k a year.

maybe but the Bama Student Aid calculator says a LA student with a 4.0 and using the scores he provided
quote:

32 ACT (36 in English)
1470 SAT (790 in Math)


you still gonna need $22,920 per year.... A Student Calculator

Truth. Son had offer that covered everything, new laptop every 2 years, and a semester learning overseas,but he couldn’t swallow going to bama. Graduates in May from LSU, and now has almost full ride to Rice for grad school.

I know. My nephew got offered more by Bama than LSU. I told my sister I would disown him if he went to Alabama.
