With ever increasing college tuition, students
are facing staggering college costs--with no sign of slowing down in sight.
Tuition continues to rise, and students are looking for more and more ways
to pay for college.
Architecture students have the usual financial burdens as their peers:
Tuition Supplies
Room and board Clothing
Text books Transportation
They also have the added expenses of the following:
Computers Printing
Software Field trips and foreign
travel
Studio supplies Summer internship
Depending on a program's requirement, these items can cost thousands of
dollars each academic year. Furthermore, students and graduates wishing to
pursue a license also have the fees for enrollment in the Intern Development
Program (IDP) and the Architect Registration Exam (ARE). While the
amount varies per student, it is obvious that studying architecture in
pursuit of a professional degree can be very expensive--perhaps far more
than the average college student. Students can therefore graduate with an
above average amount of debt due to loans.
In order to help with this, AIAS as well as
other organization have established many different student grants,
fellowships, and scholarships. For more information follow the link
