    The college is very expensive, and it only seems to continue getting more and more expensive. But I think it is worth it. The faculty is very friendly and helpful, and the classes are worth it.

    They are great when it comes to financial aid. Also do not be afraid to open up and talk to administrators. They are so great, the president let us pie him in the face for a fund raiser for Vagina Monologues.

    It's expensive, no doubt about it. I'm not sure why it's so expensive, but all private colleges are pretty much through the roof these days. McDaniel does a great job of making up for it with financial aid though.

    I applied and was accepted to eight different colleges. McDaniel had the best financial aid out of all of the schools by far. None of the rest even really compared financially. They really try to help you be able to realistically afford your education.
