TOPS statement from President Dr. Joseph Savoie

“The University of Louisiana at Lafayette is working to mitigate the impact of the potential reduction of TOPS state scholarship funding for our students.

"The University will fulfill the state’s commitment to students for TOPS funding for the 2015-2016 academic year, including the Spring 2016 semester.

"We are working with our state legislators to come up with short- and long-term solutions for TOPS stability. We are hopeful that the upcoming legislative sessions will yield outcomes that support students and this important program.

"Our students should continue to focus on their classes. We also encourage TOPS supporters to have conversations with state legislators about the future of higher education in Louisiana.”
