We'll be straight with you: applying to school is expensive. We don't mean the cost of going to school (duh, tuition), we mean the expenses associated with just hitting a "submit" button on an application. Think: application fees, testing fees, and traveling costs. We'll break down how much $$ this process is going to cost you and share some hacks to minimize the blow. When you're ready, you can use our Budgeting For Graduate School Applications Template to see your own bottom line.
