Correction to story...
We do not pay tuition for those attending the LSUE Academy as we provide transportation; however, we do provide tuition for all dual enrollment taken on our school campuses in SLP and select Universities online with which we have agreements for discounted rates.
The LSUE students pay $150 per 3 credit hours (unlimited hours as long as they are SLP students) vs regular student pay $197 per credit hour.
