FAFSA earnings check
: Not flaggedLouisiana State University Health Sciences Center-Shreveport does not trigger the FAFSA's "lower earnings" notice. Its graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $80,549, above the $32,616 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Louisiana.
This is one figure for the whole institution, not for any program: earnings differ by credential and field. It covers graduates who completed in 2017-18 and 2018-19, received federal aid, and were working and not enrolled when earnings were measured in 2022 and 2023, in January 2026 dollars. The Department says the notice is informational only: it does not change aid eligibility. Source: U.S. Department of Education, FSA Data Center, March 2026 release.

Academics
Studying online: a small share study entirely online
In Fall 2023, 50 of Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center-Shreveport's 1,045 students (5%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 7 (1%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.
Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.
