<p>I'll answer what I can.</p>
<p>I don't know what the full extent of your visit will be, but I don't see a need for a transcript. If it's just a scheduled tour, you might just have a student showing you the campus and meeting a few officials. You can always bring one, I just don't know what you are going to do with it or who you are going to hand it to.</p>
<p>As far as dress...again I don't know the nature of your visit, but I would suggest somewhat nicely but nothing overkill. The weather down here has been around 60 and lately around 70 or so. Since you are doing a campus tour, I would highly suggest comfy shoes. LSU's campus is big and you might be doing a lot of walking depending on how much of the campus they are going to show you.</p>
<p>Just ask to see the Honors college, I'm sure they won't mind. It's nothing big. The building is called the French House. It has the Honor College offices and hold a few Honors College classes. Other HC classes will be in various buildings depending on the department and course (i.e. my Honors biology course was in one of the main science buildings). I think it's slated for some renovations at some point in time.</p>
<p>What kind of food do you like? Baton Rouge has a lot of places to eat. There's lots of seafood restaurants but plenty of other food as well, such as T.J. Ribs which isn't far from LSU and houses Billy Cannon's old Heisman trophy. </p>
<p>I don't know about your admissions chances since I don't know how tough they are about out-of-state applicants. Scholarship chances can be found here: Scholarship</a> Forms</p>
<p>Basically if you meet the criteria for a reward, you should get it. </p>
<p>As far as the Honors college, even if you don't get in your Freshman year, you can still get in to the Honors college even for your Freshman Spring semester. If you show great academic skill in your college classes and show some leadership roles in the LSU campus community, they can let you in. I had a friend who didn't get in when she applied to LSU, but later got in afterwards. The Honors College is nice for scheduling perks and some of the HNRS courses are very interesting and fun. I know many of my friends who have "dropped" out of the HNRS college after their junior year because the scheduling perks don't have as much benefit as they did when they were a freshman or sophomore. I think that's enough about the Honors college for now, but I can go into more detail if need be.</p>
<p>Anyway, hope this helps some.</p>
