@C1 Occasionally I talk to people who want to get into a creative department role. They ask if I think MAS is a good idea. When I do my spiel I always say it’s probably smart to weigh the debt you’d accrue vs. other factors - but I don’t actually know what kinda debt i’m talking about.

Ad school? I hear some agencies hire based on social media followers.

You're an ACD, why would you want to go?

20k is on the low end and further more a huge percentage of Miami Ad School students are trust fund kids delaying adulthood another couple of years while moving around to different cities. 🤷‍♂️

Total tuition for 2 years is almost 40k. Add living expenses to that and you’ll have a number. A lot of people don’t actually need to finish the 2 years to get a decent junior book and skills though

Thanks all! I’m surprised it’s that low actually. I figure just living in NYC or SF without a job would cost you $20k a year alone.

I got out in a year and a half. 20k. Well worth it. Though VCU would’ve been more worth it.

If you leave the program early (which many do), then it’s less than 20k

I took out about $7k per quarter, in SF. So closer to like $60k for me. Not an extravagant lifestyle but a decent amount of partying (which is normal for MAS students). I was also one of the few who held down a part time job as well, which I regret. Would’ve preferred a bit more debt to have more time to focus and maybe get out earlier.

the Chicago school is around 15k and its only 1 year

Yup...20k minimum. Fees go higher every year. Applies to all 2 year ad schools ☺️

Last I heard it was over 30k
