<p>^My school pays if you’re on the free-lunch program. Reduced lunch pays half.</p>
<p>My school started paying for APs this year to encourage more people to take the exams. A lot of people chose not to take the exam in years past because the exams were too expensive, so I guess my school wished to ditch that excuse. I’m pretty sure their intention has to do something with rankings or whatnot, but I’m not complaining! =)</p>
<p>Too bad I took more APs last year. Oh well.</p>
<p>app fee $50 + portfolio $10 + SAT score $7= $67 if im correct
(i only applied to one school and waiting; back up is community college ;P)</p>
<p>Application fees - $110. (I got three for free, paid for two.)
SAT - $90 (Took it twice.)
Sending SAT scores - $28.50 (Sent it to three schools, will send it to two more soon.)
That’s about it so far.</p>
<p>I was limited to a budget of $500. I spent $485 and applied to 12 schools. 3 of those had free applications</p>
<p>I will be dishing out nearly $2,000 on college application fees + SAT registration fees + SAT score reporting fees + transcript/recommendation mailing fees.</p>
<p>After this setback, I plan on applying for financial aid…</p>
<p>would you please explain SAT and ACT stuff for me and how to apply for it because i often be asking for this stuff whenever i wanna apply online for an admission is it the same stuff with TOEFL programme
thanks guy</p>
<p>would i know these three of those college you are talking about</p>
<p>I’ve spent over 1500$ on all 15 of my schools I applied to. Transcript fee (10$ each), SAT(10$ each), ACT (10$ each), app fee (70$ each). Its horrible :<</p>

<p>I hope you’re being sarcastic. If you have nearly $2,000 to “dish out” on applying to college, you won’t need that much FA.</p>
<p>“I’ve spent over 1500$ on all 15 of my schools I applied to. Transcript fee (10$ each), SAT(10$ each), ACT (10$ each), app fee (70$ each). Its horrible :<”</p>
<p>Oh i forgot to add, I spent 6500$ on SAT tutoring… Didnt do anything except max out my math scores… My english scores still sucked since it is my 2nd language</p>
<p>I think the general consensus, at least on CC, is that SAT tutoring is useless considering the cost.</p>
<p>I spent $60 dollars on Sat’s had fee waiver for the others, my counselor was awesome and gave me fee waivers for all the 11 schools i applied for</p>
<p>I spent about $130 taking the SAT twice.
Then applying to colleges- $50.
I used a fee waiver form xD. </p>
<p>I only applied to 3 colleges though.</p>
<p>at least 1000</p>
<p>$150 reporting SAT scores
$1200 application fees</p>
<p>$1350 o.o</p>
<p>Well I was actually smart enough to join the Upward Bound Program. They take me on college tours, SAT tutoring, give me fee waivers and offer me tons of help with college application process. It was all FREE by the way. Nice to know that there are people out there dishing out $6000 for their kid applying to college. smh</p>
<p>By the time I’m done, we wil have spent about $900, and that’s a conservative estimate.</p>
<p>The application costs add up… but travel bills will be much higher. When you are considering such an expensive/important decision, the up front investments are worthwhile. Even if you check out all the options and end up back at the flagship state school, it is worthwhile to know that you thoroughly investigated the options.</p>
<p>You’re lucky. My school doesn’t have an Upward Bound program.</p>
