    It's pretty pricey but they are very generous with their financial aid (my award package was around $48,000) and are willing to work with you to make sure you are able to attend their school.

    Mills is expensive, but the knowledge and people you will gain while here will counter-act the financial costs. There are also loads of (FREE) services available to the students, make sure you take advantage of those! I just went to career services today and was able to have my resume looked over, I now know how to make my resume more efficient and concise.
