neucool Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I was offered $28,000 total by Emerson and ~$60,000 total by MGH, making their total prices ~30k and ~20k total respectively. Both offer opportunities for work-study type employment (either research or other work) for a few hours a week as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upandup Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Georgia State in Atlanta GA offers GAs with tuition waived to anyone who is willing to work. Hard to manage sometimes, but always an option there. Edit: GAs are graduate assistantships. Edited April 8, 2015 by upandup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clmogel Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 Do you have any reccomendations for schools with funding on the East Coast? Kate22192 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kate22192 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Do you mean that the entire program for Emerson ended up costing 20k then?? Not bad at all....what kinds of funding did you receive? Of course, living there means cost of living in Boston, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the overall cost was somewhere around 65K-70K ($1197/credit for 54 credits plus fees). Just wanted to make sure I didn't get the cost estimate totally wrong since I used that to make my decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimblewimble Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Do you have any reccomendations for schools with funding on the East Coast? On the East Coast, I received funding from JMU (GA position and tuition remission) and Radford (GA position). I also received a GA position from Loyola, but it was not enough to offset any major costs. West Chester also provides 8-10 students funding through GA positions for 10 hours per week in the department, but they do not notify you until after you would accept your offer of admission. You can also seek GA positions elsewhere at West Chester if not awarded one in the department. Kate22192 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scisl006 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Bowling Green State in Ohio has tons of funding!! Usually at least half of people get a scholarship/GA and sometimes its even more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to make sure I didn't get the cost estimate totally wrong since I used that to make my decision. No I think probably just did it at a different time- I actually calculated based on this years credit cost (I hadn't seen the new ones) assuming that both schools I was comparing would raise their per unit costs and just knowing that it would be a few thousand more. So, my original total was 61k, giving me a cost of 33k- now it'll be a bout 3000 higher. But then, with work-study monies going towards tuition, it'll be about 30k in loans for tuition I suppose. And Kate- yep, cost of living in Boston is ridiculous, so that's something else to keep in mind when figuring out aid, lol. I'm sure I'll end up with more total loans than someone who got no aid in certain places. COL is an important factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clmogel Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 Thanks everyone! Who was offered funding for Fall 2016 and where? Post your stats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racoomelon Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 EdFind will tell you how many funding offers each school gives out, but I'm not sure how accurate the data is. They don't specify how much money is given, but they do list the number of funding offers they make! clmogel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crc21 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I just interviewed at Miami University of Ohio, and about 50% of the grad students there have some sort of assistantship-- but not all are within the department. A few have assistantships with the library and writing center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAWO Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I was offered an out-of-state waiver plus half off in-state tuition at East Tennessee State U. They also offered me a half-time graduate assistantship with a stipend. clmogel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
