LSU plans to be as flexible as possible with students who have been affected by Hurricane Katrina. The AAVMC/VMCAS has already established a hurricane contingency policy where a two week deadline extension will be granted to those who clearly demonstrate hardships created by Hurricane Katrina. The established deadline is midnight, October 17 th ET. However, if you are a Louisiana resident applying to LSU and are not able to meet the October 17 th deadline, please call or email VMCAS immediately for additional arrangements. If you have questions about transcripts or potential pre-requisites that have been disrupted please contact LSU directly.
