<p>Although Cooper Union posts a $35,000 tuition, the only expenses are for room/board/books and other living costs, the tuition is taken care of by scholarship.</p>
<p>Is there any other school for ART that does that or comes close to being as low cost?</p>
<p>You should take this question to the Visual Arts and Film Majors sub-forum inside the College Majors Forum. Someone there will have ideas for you.

<p>I guess your looking for alternatives for education without paying that +10K Tuition.
It’s hard to find schools like Cooper Union and Cooper in particular is a very unique case, so I say there might be only a handful of schools that offer full tuition when your accepted. The best shots are going to more affordable schools (city/state schools) and become a resident and attend the public school. If your looking at NYC in particular I advise you for F.I.T it might not be the ideal school for fine arts, but they do offer a decent and affordable program. In my personal opinion I think it’s pretty much the same thing whether you attend a less prestigious school compared to cooper union (your studying art.)</p>
<p>BTW FIT gives out plenty of financial aid (no strings attached). So many friends of mine that attend FIT pay almost nothing to attend school! Look for options</p>
