| I've only been going for a year so far... but I've spent sooo much already. When I started I only thought about tuition, I didn't realize I'd be spending so much on equipment and supplies as well. I keep finding that I need to buy this and buy that... and then there's the other things that I don't really need but I really want (yeah, I know... I should wait, but sometimes I just can't resist).How much did you spend overall for photography school? |

| Me too... I've already spent $2000 on a starting kit, $2000 for lenses, $500 for an external flash, $300 for photo paper and matte boards, $300 for studio props... plus tuition and books. Yikes! And I still have 2 more years left! |

| Art school, I think they said $5,000 for supplies for the year is standard. |

| My Sinar with 210mm lens, sheet film holders, etc and a good tripod was in the neighborhood of $3,000. I already had a Nikon 35mm system (ten lenses and three bodies).Matte board was purchased in 50 sheet boxes for the savings, I bought 100 sheet 4x5 film again to save money. I think $5,000 a year for supplies may be a little low, but that may have to do with waste when film was exposed and developed incorrectly and damaged matte board along the way.Summer classes abroad was quite expensive, but that was my choice, they had other options locally.Tuition is tuition ... it seems to be the only stable cost I had during whole time |
