That stinks. I have a 5, 3 and 1 year old and saving for college as we speak. Who knows what it will cost when they are 18 (I don't want to know)

Did you tell the school she will need to drop out due to cost? They might be able to find something.

I hear UMass Dartmouth has a great Art Program. Take a visit with her, maybe she will have a change of heart. You can sit down with her and run the financial numbers. Maybe promise her a trip to South Africa upon graduating from a less expensive school????

uhhh, and you could remind her what her Wedding will probably set you back too in a few years (not that she will understand)

Good Luck!

She was accepted at MassArt, so that is where I am steering the conversation. It would be around 12k if she commuted. But she is not biting.... Here's a sample of her work, a self portrait that she claims was about 80% done. Think I have my hands full....

GW for sale?
jk she seems to have talent.

My oldest is 15 with 2 behind him,we have college funds but with those prices I may have to get a job.
jk again.

The smart start would have been at 12,000 and put in 2 years and transfer to the big $ school for the degree if they took her credits.
