LSU awards scholarships in the form of full and partial tuition exemptions,
cash stipends, and employment opportunities to students who meet certain academic
qualifications.
The scholarships listed for entering freshmen are awarded mainly on the basis of standardized test scores (ACT/SAT) and high school academic records. Students from under-represented populations may be selected on the basis of alternate criteria.
In addition to the scholarship programs, the LSU Office of Student Aid and Scholarships administers a number of federally funded financial aid programs totaling approximately $82 million annually for students who qualify on the basis of need.
Additional information concerning the programs listed in this section is available in the Student Aid and Scholarships handbook.

Application
for Federal
Financial Aid
Continuing, new, or prospective LSU students who wish to apply for the programs described in this section should file either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the Renewal Application. The FAFSA is available at most high schools or by contacting the LSU Office of Student Aid and Scholarships. Renewal Applications are mailed directly to prior year applicants by the U.S. Department of Education. Students with appropriate Internet access may apply on-line at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov. It is recommended that the application be filed no later than March 1 for summer or fall enrollment or October 1 for spring enrollment. These applications cover aid awarded for the upcoming academic year (beginning with the summer term) and application must be made each year.
Satisfactory
Academic Progress
for Purposes of Financial Aid
Eligibility
In order to receive financial aid, a student must be making satisfactory academic progress. For the purpose of participating in any of the federal student aid programs, the LSU Faculty Senate Committee on Student Aid and Scholarships has established the following policy for determining satisfactory academic progress for undergraduate students:
Students
with less than 60 earned hours must not be on scholastic probation.
Student
with 60 or more earned hours must have 2.0 cumulative gpa.
When
registered full-time (12 or more hours), students are expected to earn at
least an average of nine hours of credit each semester.
When
registered part-time, students are expected to earn a proportionate number
of hours (usually 75%) each semester.
Students
may only receive financial aid for a maximum of 192 attempted credit hours.
If this established criteria is not met, students may seek to appeal if mitigating circumstances affected their academic performance. Students are notified when they are not considered to be making satisfactory academic progress and if they qualify for the appeal process.
Graduate/Professional School Students
Graduate
and professional school students who meet the requirements for admission and
retention in a specific degree program under the scholastic regulations of
that school are considered to be in good academic standing.
Graduate Students shall be expected to earn at least an average of six hours of credit for each semester when registered as full-time or a proportionate number of hours credit (usually seventy-five per cent of hours carried) when registered as part-time. This will apply for each academic year in which the student is enrolled, as well as for their cumulative graduate academic record.
Professional school students pursuing a professional degree program in either law or veterinary medicine shall be expected to earn at least an average of twelve hours of credit for each semester when registered full-time or a proportionate number of hours of credit (usually seventy-five per cent of hours carried) when registered part-time. This will apply for each academic year in which the student is enrolled, as well as for their cumulative academic record in professional school.
Resignations/Unofficial Withdrawals
Students who receive financial aid funds and then resign or unofficially withdraw (cease attendance) during the first 60 percent of the enrollment period will be required to repay all or part of the aid they received. The amount of aid that must be returned is based on the period of time the student remained enrolled. For example, if a student was enrolled for 30 percent of the semester (calendar days), the student is only entitled to 30 percent of the total aid received. The remaining 70 percent of federal aid must be returned to the appropriate programs in the following order: Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loans, Federal Perkins Loans, Federal PLUS Loans, Federal Pell Grants, Federal SEOG, and LEAP. The amount of aid to be returned will be calculated at the time of resignation. For unofficial withdrawals, the amount will be calculated at the end of the enrollment period. Until this obligation is settled, requests for academic transcripts will not be processed and any further financial aid may be in jeopardy.
Refunds
Students who receive financial aid funds and then officially resign from the University may be entitled to a partial refund of certain University fees, depending on the resignation date. Specific information regarding the refund schedule is available in from the Office of the University Registrar.
Campus Employment
Those students who want to work on campus, but do not qualify on the basis of financial need, may seek regular student employment by contacting various departments on campus. Only full-time students who are not on academic probation are eligible to hold campus jobs. Graduating seniors who are part-time in their final semester may have permission to work in a campus job. The Job Location and Development Program located in B12 Coates Hall provides assistance with locating part-time jobs on- and off-campus. Graduate students should inquire about the availability of assistantships in their departmental offices.
Short-Term LSU Loans
Full-time
students may apply for short-term Hiram Student Loans for $300-$500. Students
must not be on scholastic probation to receive these loans. Loans are made
starting on the first day of classes; the process continues until October
1 for fall, March 1 for spring, and July 1 for summer. Students are permitted
a maximum of 60 days to repay the loan in full. A two percent service charge
is assessed on the amount borrowed. This two percent service charge is equivalent
to an annual interest rate of 12 percent.
Hiram Student
Loans are to be repaid at the Office of Bursar Operations, 125 Thomas Boyd
Hall, on or before the maturity date shown on the promissory note signed by
the student at the time the loan was negotiated. Students who fail to repay
the Hiram Student Loan by the maturity date may jeopardize their chances of
making future loans.
Accounts that must be turned over to LSU's attorneys for collection are assessed an additional collection fee. All international students who are interested in Hiram Loans should contact the International Student Office prior to receiving loans or working in jobs on campus.
Services for Students with Disabilities
The Office of Student Aid and Scholarships is a TDD (Telecommunications Device for the Deaf) location. Hearing impaired students may call 578-3675 to communicate with a financial aid officer.
Students with physical disabilities who must confer with a financial aid officer should contact the office for an appointment in advance so that appropriate accommodations can be made.
VETERANS' BENEFITS
The Office
of the University Registrar, 112 Thomas Boyd Hall, provides counseling and
information for veterans attending LSU. Enrollment certifications to the Veterans'
Administration are handled through this office, and all veterans and eligible
dependents of deceased or disabled veterans are urged to establish contact
with the Office of Veterans' Affairs when they arrive on campus. New students
who wish to receive advance pay should notify this office at least 30 days
prior to registration.
