<p>Stats: “Official Documents are required to complete your Admissions Process”. Applied on August 20th, status on Paws changed to “All documents have reached us and we will let you know” on Oct 2. However, it reverted back to “Official Documents are required to complete your admissions process”. I sent them an email in Mid-October. They said they need my TOEFL scores, I replied back and they changed their mind and responded that i don’t need to send TOEFL because of my SAT scores. I emailed them once more and they told me on October 30th that they have thousands of applications and will let me know what i am missing… Its November 18th now and still nothing. </p>

<p>@SD1996
There are no essays, counselor or teacher recommendations for LSU. LSU is a big public university for Louisiana, so I would assume they would be overwhelmed with many applications. They also release decisions based on when they received them. For example, if you applied on July 1st (the day they opened the application) you would mostly likely receive your decision first (if and only if all of your required materials are in).</p>

<p>SD1996, look on LSU’s web site for good answers.</p>
