1. General Institutional Betterment Fund

The LSUA General Institutional Betterment Fund is one of LSUA’s highest fundraising priorities. A gift to this fund allows us to support students, retain faculty, explore new project possibilities and meet workforce needs across the region. The LSUA General Institutional Betterment Fund has become increasingly important in the flexible spending needed to maintain the university’s excellence. The unrestricted nature of gifts to this fund will ultimately provide the core of excellence that will help sustain LSUA for years to come.

2. LSU of Alexandria's Scholarship Fund

Our university is ranked among the best colleges in Louisiana, with the lowest in-state tuition! 42 percent of LSUA students graduate career-ready and debt-free through our exceptional programs. Additionally, 30 percent of our students receive university scholarships. LSUA students can achieve personal and professional success through our 23:1 student to faculty ratio, personalized support services, and numerous student activities across campus.

3. Generals Emergency Relief Fund

The LSUA Emergency Support Fund was established for limited financial assistance when students are unable to meet immediate, essential expenses due to temporary hardship related to an emergency. Having the ability to help students in this time of need so that they can continue to focus on their academic programs is important to overall student success at LSUA.
