Roadmap to Admissions

Getting Prepared

LSUA Codes
  • LSUA ACT Code: 1589
  • LSUA FAFSA Code: 002011

You can use the following list to help prepare for college admission. Even though the thought of college may be far off, preparing early helps ensure the following areas:

  • Getting admitted to a university.
  • Getting Scholarships. To qualify for some scholarships you need to start thinking along these guidelines your freshman year.
  • Finishing college sooner. Taking college courses while you're in high-school allows you to get preliminary courses out of the way before you even begin.

Our recruiters regularly visit high-schools throughout Louisiana. If you have any questions ask them the next time they are visiting your school. You can view their upcoming schedule at LSUA Recruiters Webpage.
