Welcome to LOSFA's College Knowledge. By registering on this site, you signify that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use as well as LOSFA's privacy policy.

Profile Creation: During the registration process, LOSFA will generate a password for you if your profile is approved. This will be sent to you at the email address you entered during the registration process. After you login you can change your password to one of your own. LOSFA provides guidance on creating your password.

Photo Limitations: If you upload a personal image for your profile, it must be in one of the following file formats: GIF, JPG, or PNG.

Photo Content: Before a photo and "Why I'm Going" statement can be used as your profile, it must be reviewed by the LOSFA for approval. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion to reject and refuse to post any content that violates this agreement or College Knowledge's policy on user-generated content. You may not upload or post any material that is determined to be inappropriate by the College Knowledge team or infringes any copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or other propriety rights of any person or entity.

Profile Approval Process: College Knowledge will notify you via e-mail when your profile is approved. If your profile violates College Knowledge's policy on user-generated content, you will be notified via e-mail that your profile has been rejected, and you will have the opportunity to submit another profile. If we identify a reasonably obvious and minor grammar, spelling, or punctuation error in your profile submission, the College Knowledge team will modify it to what we think is correct and post your profile. If we identify a major grammar, spelling, or punctuation error in your profile submission, or if the College Knowledge team is unsure of the meaning, you will receive an e-mail asking you to clarify your "Why I'm Going" statement before it is posted. We will not post your profile until we receive your response.

Display Your Profile: You should note that displaying your profile on the College Knowledge homepage allows the public to see your profile.

Reporting Profiles: You have the ability to report other users' profiles that are offensive or violate College Knowledge's policy on user-generated content, by emailing custserv@osfa.la.gov. Reported profiles will be removed from College Knowledge's home page pending further investigation.
