Ghost Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Here's what's publicly avaiable for world class corps. The Academy: $3,000 Blue Devils: $2,700 Blue Knights: Blue Stars: Bluecoats: Boston Crusaders: $3,675 The Cadets: $3,715 Carolina Crown: $3,675 Cascades: $2,950 The Cavaliers: $2,750 Colts: $3,000 Crossmen: $2,900 Jersey Surf: Madison Scouts: $3,075 Mandarins: $2,600 Oregon Crusaders: $3,000 Pacific Crest: $3,200 Phantom Regiment $3,200 Pioneer: $2,800 Santa Clara Vanguard: $2,250 Spirit of Atlanta: Troopers: $2,775 Here's open class. 7th Regiment: $1,460 Blue Devils B: Blue Devils C: Blue Saints: City Sound: Coastal Surge: $1,550 Colt Cadets: $3,000* Columbians: Genesis: $2,375 Gold: $1,750 Impulse: Legends: $3,000 Les Stentors: Music City: $2,300 Racine Scouts: Raiders: $1,750 Spartans: Thunder: Vanguard Cadets: *The Colts website did not differentiate between the primary corps and the Cadets. Might not be accurate. Note that these are base fees. Nearly every corps has an early payment and vet discount. Some corps also require you to pay for new uniform parts. These are just rough figures. EDIT: Added public open class fees. Then there's the pocket money during tour, camps, and travel/camp fees for several camps each Winter. Up to another couple of thousand, depending where you live.

garfield Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 What are tuition fees? It's the cost the kids pay to march. Did I miss something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drummer5485 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Man, my New Guy year in 04 I think I paid $950? Then after that it was like $100 off or something every year after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perc2100 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Well it's a good thing there are no self absorbed elitist ###### on this discussion board! A simple "no" would suffice if you don't have the requested information. Hey, welcome to DCP! Glad you can contribute to meaningful discourse with the rest of the community...

IllianaLancerContra Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Man, my New Guy year in 04 I think I paid $950? Then after that it was like $100 off or something every year after. It would be interesting to do the comparison of cost then vs now, taking into account inflation, as well as the fact that the kids are fed better now. IIRC BITD Bridgement sometimes set up near BD or SCV so the kids could make friends ( & get some food as well). Also remember hearing Bridgemen survived on popcorn for several days once. Some things are better now than back then - charter busses are way safer than some of what was driven back then. I remember a member of 27 that was scared to ride the bus home from DCI - That was when Geo. B. knew he finally had to throw in the towel.
