Least Expensive MArch?

stbarbara

Per semester -out of state

Georigia Tech 14K

UT Austin 102-12K

UT Kentucky 10K

UC Berkeley 17.5K

UMich 17.5K

WU St. Louis 19K

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.

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).

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.

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

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.
