Photography & Digital Imaging - New Lab Fee for 2006/07

This upcoming September, the Photography & Digital Imaging Program will be collecting a lab fee to provide incoming students with the supplies they require to complete all assigned projects, skills and many self directed endeavors. The fee of
$1575.00 is an estimate of what the average student consumes throughout their first year of studies (black & White/color film & paper, slide film, etc...). The fee will be collected by the Admissions Department along with tuition.
A small amount of supplies will still be required above and beyond what the lab fee provides. These items should be acquired before the start of classes in September. Please refer to the list below for more information.
