The size of LSU- Baton Rouge is unique.

Something unique about Louisiana State University is that we have a live tiger (mascot) in a habitat on campus. One of my favorite things to do is visit "Mike the Tiger" and show my school spirit. The habitat built for our mascot is a very extravagant, beautiful environment that attracts many students throughout the year- it is definitely a sight to see. Another unique aspect of my school are the Indian Mounds located on campus. These mounds are thought to be more than 5,000 years old and were once used for ceremonial purposes. My school is quite unique!!

Louisiana State University is unique because there is a variety of majors that a student can choose from and those majors have a good program that will help a student be successful in the field that they choose to go in.

The school location is one of the things that attracted me the most. I grew up in Donna, Tx where being hispanic was a majority. In Louisiana being a hispanic is a minority. There are many different cultures, different people that i felt like LSU was the place for me. I also really love the school spirit, there is so much pride taken for being a tiger. Not to mention the sourthern hospatality makes you feel like you at home.

LSU is willing to work with your schedule. As a full-time employee, they make it easy for me to attend school part-time.

There is significantly more diversity at LSU than there are at the other schools I considered. I considered Southern University and the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. For me as an African-American female in the south, I didn't want to be culturally limited. LSU exposed me to diverse cultures, beliefs, and areas of study.

I would choose this college for the ability to gain the university degree at a fraction of the cost! Why not come to one of the most collegiate sports teams in the U.S?
Derionne
My school is unique compared to other schools because of the amount of school spirit that is displayed on an everyday basis. On any given day, you can walk around campus and see students and faculty proudly wearing their school colors as if it were gameday. The thing that is truly remarkable about this is that this sense of school spirit and "Tiger Pride" does not go away after graduation. There are countless alumni from age 25 to 95 that show their love for LSU everyday.
Benton
The campus culture around LSU is very positive. Everyone has a ton of school pride and spirit.
Dzifa
The campus and the tiger pride.
Natasha
It has a really great atmosphere. The people are really friendly and it has good Southern charm. The campus is also really beautiful - I think that's what surprised me most. There are tons of trees and nice courtyards that you can study in. The buildings look really nice, too. If you're into sports this is definitely the place to be, but it also has what I'm looking for in quality education. I've had a really great time here.
Stephanie
Close enough to the expectations of the real-world.
ASHLEY
THERE IS ALOT OF SPIRIT THROUGH OUT THE CAMPUS. THE STUDENTS ARE FRIENDLY. IT IS NOT IN MY HOMETOWN BUT NOT TOO FAR AWAY.
Beau
Size, and school spirit
Lauren
There is a strong sense of community and school pride.
Erica
Louisiana State University has a community based environment that makes it easy to form lasting relationships with friends, faculty, and staff. The communtiy based environment flows into the classroom , and it makes learning more interesting. Also, the scenery around the school is breath-taking.
Rachael
There is tons of school spirit! Also, everyone is friendly and willing to lend a helping hand. In addition, there are tons of activities and extracurriculars to get involved in on campus.
Elisabeth
The school spirit is very unique compared to other schools I applied to. The students and faculty seem to be proud of their university, and big fans of LSU football. Tailgating for football games is very popular, even amoung the older (such as parents and alumni) crowd. It's an experience to walk around and see the different setups that everyone has. Food and beer seems to never be short either.
