Are state schools the only good buy out there? Or are there more expensive schools that are worth applying to because you just might get a scholarship? I went to a tech school for undergrad and would love to go to a more intense and competititve (in a good way) theory/design oriented school for grad but it seems like the art schools and ivies are double the cost.
Probably good to take into account private schools with generous packages. When I was there, quite a few people at MIT had full or nearly full grant funding.
Doesn't Cooper Union give all of its students full-rides? Though I suppose the school being in the middle of NYC would require students to spend absurd amounts of money just to live there
the other thing to consider is how easy or difficult it is to get in-state tuition. some states let you become a resident within 12 months, even if a student. for others, it is two years or not possible at all if you are a student. some schools that are rather expensive out of state are very reasonable as in-state institutions and in-state status can be gained relatively easily.

syracuse 10K (21K for the year-is this true?) I hear they offer scholarships as well.
Iowa State 10K
Rice 13K
U Cincinatti 8.5K , really?
Clemson 8.5K
University of Cincinatti is 3 years (9 semesters) for an March II, so it is actually more expensive than UMich at 2 years (4 semesters).
Rice is three years as well, no advanced standing.

Urbanist, good information, thank you! MIT looked the most interesting to me, but I had put it out of my mind.
