So I got accepted EA to SAIC a little while ago, and it’s my second choice behind Cooper Union for whom I am completing that god forsaken hometest as we speak. SAIC offered me 63k over the 4 years, but I am very confused as to what the real tuition of SAIC is (plus room/expenses)
I’ve been getting confused by the prices per credit because I’m not really sure how many credits one is meant to take/is normal I guess?
I’m going to be appealing because I do need more money and maybe I will be getting financial aid, but with the cost of flying there from where I live in NY, I am afraid of the price.
I had though that it was around 60k per year but my mom was telling me its 45k ?
If anyone knows please let me know!
Please do contact the Financial Aid office at SAIC. The merit that you receive is based on the credit hours taken - I think they assume a certain load the first year. So if you increase or decrease that credit load, your merit changes accordingly. They’re transparent about it when you contact them, but it’s a little confusing when you see it first on paper.
@rochej2016 Can you please share with me when did you hear the decision form SAIC ? I know this was last year for you, but my D applied EA to SAIC this year and is her #1 choice and the wait is killing her!
