The Office of Scholarships awards various scholarships to incoming, transfer, and international students. Some include housing stipends that cover all or some of housing.
All scholarships are awarded and facilitated through the Office of Scholarships. A housing scholarship value varies and can be used toward all housing room types except The Heritage Apartments.
Having a scholarship does not guarantee you a housing assignment.
You must apply for housing and you will be assigned like other students based on the application completion date.
First-Time Freshmen Scholarships
Some first-time freshman academic scholarships may cover a portion of housing costs. Visit the Office of Scholarships' website or review the terms of your scholarship award letter for specific details.
If your scholarship includes a housing stipend, it can only be applied to on-campus housing. Students can select a different room type preference or meal plan different from what is covered by their scholarship, but they will be responsible for the cost difference.
Questions regarding scholarships should be directed to the Office of Scholarships at scholars@louisiana.edu.

When applying for the next year, scholarship students who wish to be assigned to Legacy Park Apartments can put themselves on the scholarship Legacy Park standby list. Legacy Park scholarship spots are based on the student's initial housing application date.
