Berklee is a bit pricy, but with the right amount of work put into scholarships and making yourself valuable to the school, its all worth it.

accepted here and planning to attend soon
I will say the cost drives many students away. The only reason I give it five stars is because of how many opportunities it gives for students to receive scholarships and work on or near campus.

If you meet people and network, it totally is. Take advantage of that Berklee name.

Every city is pretty expensive. But Boston is like a mini New York - just less organized in terms of streets. With the Berklee Card, students get great discounts for food at local restaurants which definitely helps since tuition can burn a hole in the pocket. But if you don't have a Berklee Card, look for local coupons or deals in Boston magazines, Berklee coupon books, and online. Discounts for Duck Tours, dining in experiences, and even local stores are all around.

Berklee is a very expensive school but I believe if you put in the hard work and make the most out of your experience it is well worth it. The friends you meet and skills you gain make it a great experience.
