Massachusetts College of Art and Design Top Questions

I wish I had known nothing at all about mass art. I came here with the false notion of an affordable public school for artists. I found out through my own endeavours of coexistance that it is not the art, arted, artist or acedemia that 'confounds' this place, but rather the attempts at ambitious projects fueled by constructive ideal opinions that makes this community so enriching. Sometimes it can be hard to relate to one another through art and communication, but learning how to 'question' in a humanistic way is one of the most constructive lessons to be learned here.

I wish I had known more about it would be the amount of money it would cost me to attend here. My previous school gave me grants and scholarships to attend while MassArt is a much smaller school and can not really give to much money out. Currently I am taking out 30,000 + thousand dollars in loans a year and can only hope that I will have a great job upon graduation that will allow me to pay them back.
