The University of Louisiana System announces a special tuition rate for adults wanting to return to school at one of their nine campuses to finish their degree through the Compete LA program. UL System President Jim Henderson says the new rate provides an average discount of $450 per course.
“For the vast majority of our programs, it is $275 per credit hour. Zero fees, full transparency. This is a revolution that is designed to meet the needs of our workforce, it’s designed to meet the needs of the adult learner,” said Henderson.
The UL System launched Compete LA last fall and has enrolled more than 2,000 returning students. Henderson says the process of finding the right path to a degree doesn’t get much more convenient.
“Download our app. It gives you, right in your hand, access to a concierge that will ensure that you can get your college degree in the fastest, most adult-friendly method available on the market today,” said Henderson.
Henderson says the program gives employers a bigger talent pool to hire from and will enhance the revenue for the state of Louisiana.
“Because when we graduate students, they go to work. They become tax payers, they become contributors, so it will also help the revenue picture out for the state of Louisiana,” said Henderson.
