Location – Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Since LSU is not located in Texas, it is more expensive for Texans to attend. This is called “Out-of-State tuition.”
But…with good grades and high test score, LSU will waive your out of state fees!
Baton Rouge is the capitol of Louisiana.
Located 254 miles from Humble and Kingwood.
It would take you 4 and a half hours to drive there!

Rally Cry: Geaux Tigers
Because of the French/Cajun character of South Louisiana, LSU support can be seen by its spelling of "Go Tigers" as "Geaux Tigers“
Many Cajun names and words use the ending French spelling "eaux" for the long "o" vowel sound.
