- Who can apply
- Entering Ogden Honors College freshmen with outstanding academics, leadership and service, including international Honors applicants. The Honors page expressly says all Honors applicants are considered for Chancellor's Alumni; a general aid restriction concerns traditional freshman awards.
- Good to know
- The current Honors page states December 1, 2026 priority, required Honors writing sample and consideration of international applicants for the named Chancellor's Alumni award. A general LSU aid page separately restricts international students for traditional freshman awards, a different award category. The award covers full cost of attendance; undated approximate annual dollar estimates are excluded from this value summary. The retention policy calls the award President's Alumni, formerly Chancellor's Alumni; current Honors still uses Chancellor's Alumni. Renewal requires 3.0 cumulative GPA and 24 annual credits.
