I would say a standard debt amount for just the MLA could be anywhere from 20-40K, and you can almost double that for a BLA.

The idea of working longer hours for less pay has been around for a long time in the design professions and is unlikely to let up anytime soon. I have worked for firms in China and the U.S. that expect crazy hours, even most weekends.
I would say the majority of landscape architecture firms…[Read more]

Thanks for the link! Yeah, that’s all I have been able to figure out- DesignIntelligence’s top 10. But I want like top 25 or 50, so all the schools I applied to will appear on the list, hopefully, so I can rank them accordingly.

I have applied to MLA programs at:

-LSU (accepted)
-Kansas State (awaiting)
-Texas A&M…[Read more]
