Tulane TOPS

Does TOPS only cover tuition? Can it be used for fees, books, room and board? Son received Legislative scholarship which covers tuition. Would like to use TOPS to cover other costs.

I guess we’re supposed to know what TOPS stands for?

Sorry about that. Taylor Opportunity Program for Students (TOPS). It is a program for Louisiana residents to help pay for higher education. I was hoping someone from Louisiana and attending Tulane would have some insight. I will most likely call Tulane today and find out.

@Muad_dib perhaps you can add this here: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/52585-abbreviation-thread.html#latest

My son is a senior this year and lucky enough to get a Dean’s scholarship and we have used his TOPS money for room, meals, books, whatever else he needed for college.
