<p>I'm a sophomore in high school, and lately college has been weighing heavily on my mind. I do not come from a financially stable family but I have good grades and really want to go to LSU when I graduate. I was just wondering what expenses i should be preparing for..
I know things like tuition, books, meal plans, etc. But a list would be helpful. And what about some scholarships I could apply for? My school is really small, with a total of around 350 students, but what types of extracurricular look good on an application? I'm not sporty.An I've been looking around and Joan Miller Hall has caught my eye. Is that a good dorm? I'm absolutely going to stay on campus. I know it's a lot could someone please help??</p>
<p>If you want to go to LSU, then the worthwhile scholarships are the ones that LSU offers. One time small scholarships from private entities aren’t going to pay for college. For instance, winning a one-time $1000 scholarship from the local Rotary club isn’t going to help you for your soph, jr, senior years. They will help a bit for frosh year, but they won’t really get you to your goal of paying for college. </p>
<p>Go to LSU’s website to see what stats are needed for their scholarships.</p>
