How is the tuition at AMDA LA?

I'm considering applying to AMDA in Los Angeles and trying to get an idea of what tuition looks like there. Does anyone know how much I should expect to pay yearly? Any insight on financial aid or scholarships would be super helpful too!

For the 2024-2025 academic year, the full-time tuition fee for undergraduate programs at AMDA Los Angeles is approximately $46,628. Let's note that this fee does not include room and board, books and supplies, and other personal expenses, which can add to the total cost of attendance.

In terms of financial aid, AMDA offers several scholarships that are awarded based on talent, demonstrated financial need, and academics. In addition to these scholarships, the college also provides financial aid options such as Federal Pell Grants, Federal Work-Study, and subsidized and unsubsidized Federal Direct Loans.

Keep in mind that you will need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be eligible for any federal financial aid. It also helps the school determine how much aid you may be eligible to receive. The FAFSA uses a metric called the Student Aid Index (SAI) to determine your financial need.

Lastly, AMDA offers an interest-free monthly payment plan to help distribute your education expenses over equal monthly payments. This can be helpful to manage your expenses throughout the year. Be sure to check with the AMDA financial aid office to get the most specific and up-to-date information for your situation.

Remember, it is always a good idea to apply to a mix of reach, match, and safety schools, and to assess each one not just in terms of admission possibility, but also in the context of financial feasibility for you and your family.
