Southeastern Louisiana University
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaSoutheastern Louisiana University is a state-funded public university located in Hammond, Louisiana. It was originally founded in 1925 by Linus A. Sims, the principal of Hammond High School, as Hammond Junior College, located in a wing of the high school building. Sims succeeded in getting the campus moved to north Hammond in 1928, when it became known as Southeastern Louisiana College. It achieved university status in 1970. There are approximately 15,000 students representing 43 states and 66 countries enrolled. During the 1990s Southeastern was the fastest-growing college in the United States, despite the presence Louisiana State University (flagship of the LSU system) only west of Hammond along Interstate 12 in the state capital of Baton Rouge, and the presence of several universities to the southeast in New Orleans.
Southeastern's colors are green and gold, and the nickname is the Lions. Southeastern's sports teams participate in NCAA Division I (FCS for football) in the Southland Conference.
History
Southeastern Louisiana University began as a grassroots movement by the people of Hammond and the surrounding area, who recognized the need for an institution of higher education to further the educational, economic, and cultural development of Southeast Louisiana. What began as a junior college supported by local taxes developed into a major university as Southeastern has grown to meet the evolving needs of southeast Louisiana and the Florida parishes.
On July 7, 1925, the voters overwhelmingly approved a bond issue that created Hammond Junior College. Operated under the auspices of the Tangipahoa Parish School Board, Sims opened the doors on September 14, 1925, with a faculty of three women and two men and 40 students. The two-year coeducational institution offered basic undergraduate work in arts and sciences that culminated in a teaching certificate.

Question: University of Louisiana Monroe and Southeastern Louisiana University. Rate (L)1-10(H) and why? Which is better?I would love to go to LSU but they don't have an out-of-state tuition waiver like SELU, thank you for that info samantha12 months ago
Best AnswerSELU has a nice campus, great nursing, business, education & social work programs. New dorms, nice work out rooms, pretty fair parking, clean campus. Not much of a sports school. About an hour from New Orleans & 45 minutes from Baton Rouge. People are friendly. Decent places to go out partying. I'm not that familiar with Monroe. Been there a few times. About the same size school, but campus isn't as nice. Not much to do in Monroe and not near any place interesting. I'd pick SELU. |
Question: Southeastern Louisiana University?I applied to SLU for the spring '09 and I took a tour a few weeks ago, it seems like a nice school. However, I have gotten mixed opinions about the school and i know im gonna have to see it for myself, but i just wanted to hear from people on yahoo. What do you think of SLU?? academics/people/student life(parties) / greek life/ professors/ friendliness.. etc thank!13 months ago
Best AnswerThe easiest way to find out info is to find a student. You can start looking for contact information for Louisiana universities here. http://www.collegereviewed.com/Louisiana-Colleges-Universities.html Students always seem to know what's up since they get to experience the classes and the lifestyle. |
Question: college applications?I'm going into my senior year of high school and I'm planning on attending Southeastern Louisiana University. When is the best time to send in my application? I'm pretty sure they don't do early admission or anything like that. Should i wait till i take the ACT again. I already have a 23 and that is high enough to get in but I'm taking it again in October.18 months ago
Best AnswerI would say go ahead and wait until you take the test again. I do not believe it's necessary to apply now. I applied to colleges around November, December, January. That will give you plenty of time. |
Question: Southeastern Louisiana University (4 yr univ.) vs. University of Phoenix (online)?Just recently, I've decided to change my major to Information Technology. I've heard that Southeastern Louisiana (4 year institution) has a great IT program. However, that'll extend my program to 2 more years. Now, University of Phoenix allows me to earn my B.S degree in 2 years. Do you feel that this is credible and will benefit me at all? I know someone who's getting their Bachelor's from Phoenix, but I know that most employers don't receive degrees from Phoenix (online) as they will from a 4 year institution. How would you feel if you had to choose between the 2 colleges?25 months ago
Best AnswerSoutheastern. My sister just graduated there with a tech. degree and she loved it! And got a wonderful job!! Good Luck! |
Question: Should I be worried about college costs?I have a 3.0 GPA. I got a 27 on the ACT, and I qualify for TOPS, a local program that takes care of a large percentage of tuition. However, my parents are not in the position to pay for the rest of my education or housing, and I am not eligible for student loans because my parents don't pay their taxes, sadly. I only have about $10,000 to spend in 4 years. I plan on going to Southeastern Louisiana University (Avg. ACT: 21, Avg. GPA: 3.0) For those of you who have dealt with this problem, do you think I will be able to pay for all this without taking out loans?38 months ago
Best AnswerPaying for college can be difficult, but there are people and resources to help you. You can afford college. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't. Sure, it's not always easy and it can be expensive. But you can do it. You can go through college with less worry if you do a little planning and are frugal with the income that you are assured. The one question that you should ask yourself is “How long do you want to take to get your degree?” There is always the option of working your way through school. You could take a smaller course load, and use the extra time to work. This will not only help relieve some of your monetary issues, but also improve your resume upon graduation. You should also talk with a financial aid counselor at your school. Every school is different. The Fin Aid department at your school may have special programs geared toward your specific situation that can help you. Also try doing scholarship, grant, and other financial aid searches online. ScholarshipHelp is a website that explains how college funding works, the types of scholarships available, how to find them and how to apply for them. I have listed other websites that gives additional information about paying for college. There's obviously no guarantee that any of these sites will work, but it can get you on the right track to getting the information that you need. Best of Luck. |
