Hey everyone! I'm a high school junior, and I'm interested in applying to Louisiana State University. With the current situation, I wanted to know if LSU has gone test-optional or if they still require standardized test scores. Thanks!
Hey there! Louisiana State University (LSU) did implement a test-optional policy in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, this policy was temporary and has since been lifted. Starting from the 2024-2025 application cycle, LSU will require all applicants to submit either an SAT or ACT score. This means that for your application as a high school junior, you'll need to provide a standardized test score.
So, if you're planning to apply to LSU, I recommend focusing on preparing for the SAT or ACT to meet this requirement. It's also a good idea to familiarize yourself with the other admission requirements and deadlines for LSU to ensure a smooth application process. Good luck with your college search and applications!
