In Louisiana, I hardly ever hear of someone not getting into school. We have lots of excellent smaller universities around the state. I am sure takes some major heat out of the LSU selections process which I am sure is still pretty rough. I had no trouble getting in years ago but I had an awesome ACT score, lots of extracurriculars and pretty good grades.
The best thing about Louisiana is our TOPS program (which I am sure is going to bankrupt the state). If you have a minimum ACT of 20 (or the state's average from the previous year) and a GPA of 2.5 on specified core classes, your tuition is paid for 8 semesters. You also get a stipend if you have certain levels above that. It is an awesome program and is why many of us don't leave the state for college.
