Hi! So I was recently accepted into Mannes School of Music and there’s a good chance that I might be attending. However, I have no idea where to begin. The tuition (I also included fees) after merit scholarship, subsidized and unsubsidized loans, and Pell grant totals to $20, 415. I have no idea how to pay the difference; help?
Are you saying your parents can’t afford that net cost $20,000?
If so, they would either need to take a loan for you to attend…or co-sign a loan for you to attend.
You could probably earn $2500 this summer, but that wouldn’t cover the costs.
If OP has a Pell grant, no way to afford an additional $20k.
