re: No wonder smart kids are going to out of state schools - LSU sucks for scholarships

LSU penalizes in-state students simply because TOPS is an option for them. So they dole out more $$$ to out-of-state students to entice them, while still making much more money off of them over in-state students. What's sad, though, is at the same time LSU's out-of-state scholarship opportunities are still laughable compared to the Florida's, Auburn's, Alabama's, Tennessee's, etc..

It's insane. My wife received a full scholarship at LSU as an out of state applicant. Some of here sorority sisters with similar scores or better were in state and got squat. It's topsy turvy dumb shite. My wife and I are thankful though...haha

Two years ago, it was laughable. They barely wanted to speak to my daughter. She took her 4.6+ GPA to Gator town. Her scholarships, plus Florida's version of TOPS, makes it pretty helpful. UF Engineering program is ranked #43 in the US. LSU is now 97th.
