Do you have professional certifications or military credit? You may be able to use your prior learning through “Prior Learning Assessment” to gain credits towards your degree. LSU Online offers credit for Amazon/AWS certifications, PMP, CFA, CPA, Certified Professional Constructors, and other certifications, as well as military training.
Another path is to start with an LSU MicroCred® and earn credit when transferred into an eligible degree or certificate program. Credit for prior learning is offered for programs at LSU A&M, LSU Alexandria and LSU Eunice.
