QP Eagle5US--
Sir, two potential avenues of reducing costs may be for your daughter:
(a) to 'test out' of as many prerequisites as possible via AP exams and SAT II tests and
(b) to take classes at a JC/CC/public university during the summers and then to transfer the credits to Ringling College.
In the case of (b) she will need to communicate clearly with Ringling's Office of Advising, Records, and Registration Services so that everyone understands the conversion rate of apples to oranges.
In conjunction, these two options may position her to get the most 'bang for the buck' from the tuition if not also to graduate early.
HTH.
