<p>Hi all, I have portfolio ready and I am thinking about applying for the upcoming spring term, but I am worried about the cost of the school for an out of state student. I've looked up the tuition and it came up to be about $11,000 to $12,000 a year. I was wondering what amount others received in their financials aid award packages and what loans were taken to cover these costs. Or Does the school give merit or need based grants and how much is usually given?</p>
