What am I doing with this information?
I would hope LSU isn’t handing out degrees to every single jabroni who applies.

Applicant numbers were a bigger deal before every king and queen started applying to 1,000 colleges so they could get in the paper about how they receive $1 million in scholarships.

In 2017 LSU had 18,000 applicants. What a change

Sounds like a playground for retards! That’s a lot of water coloring and crayon training degrees.

Our workforce and education system is beyond saving. It needs to be blown up.

The bama sorority doc was huge for sec. Apparently all the girls from the north want to be sec now
Every sec application number went way up. Bama gets over 100k applicants a year

I really would love to see the list of degrees given. I’m betting a decent percentage of degrees will get the person no where

Not quite. According to our records it shows a little under 62K. But to your first statement about that bama sorority doc, yes it has increased the focus on northern kids. It is both good and bad for Bama. Good because higher stat kids from all over are applying. Bad because in-state kids and their families are turned off by it and are going elsewhere. Also, these girls will transfer the moment they don't get into the sorority they want which hurts our retention rate.

Bama got 60,000 applicants. UCLA got 100,000 applicants.

I bet only 5000 of those applicants (if they go all 4 years and get a degree) stay in Louisiana.

What am I missing? Only 5800 graduated? Is that normal? Seems extremely low to me regardless of the number of applicants.

The watered down online degrees, underqualified students sitting next to your kid (the writing skills in particular is sometimes atrocious - I witnessed with my own eyes), number of courses taught by TAs, mass testing vs critical thinking testing, the number of professors who are phoning it in…
Diluted degrees, much less which degrees.
They are not all created equal on multiple dimensions.

You are missing that most high school graduate students apply at the same time (to begin college in the fall), but they do not graduate at the same time.
Not all of them finish in 4 years (some take longer some shorter) .I am pretty sure like most colleges, AT LSU there is a Spring, Summer, and Fall graduation. That is why the application number is greater than the number of graduates in the spring.

why does the number of applicants matter? applications do not equal enrolled students
there are under 33k undergrads at BR campus, graduating 18% of the students enrolled each yea is pretty good considering many degrees take 5 years. i mean there are only 8100 freshman so pretty good rate imo for a state university

I'd rather see how much twerking and stomping they can do when they cross the stage.
