Students who do not meet the stated criteria but who wish to attend UL Lafayette are invited to apply for Admission by Exception Committee. In reviewing these applications, the Admission by Exception Committee looks beyond the basic numeric criteria and gives particular attention to factors such as the quality of the student’s curriculum, GPA, special talents, extracurricular activities, teacher recommendations, leadership abilities, and membership in an under-represented group. In all cases, the committee’s overriding consideration will be the student’s potential to succeed in the UL Lafayette academic environment.
