About This School
Pratt Institute-Main is a private nonprofit institution located in Brooklyn, New York with approximately 3,910 undergraduate students enrolled. Pratt Institute-Main has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 73%. The average net price after financial aid is $52,659 per year. The graduation rate is 74%, and the typical graduate earns $48,900 within 10 years of enrollment.
Worth considering if you're serious about art and design and want an urban Brooklyn environment with real creative energy — the 89% freshman retention rate suggests students genuinely want to stay once they arrive. The financial picture deserves a hard look, though: at $50,647/year net price and median earnings of just $48,900 a decade out, you'll need a clear plan for managing costs, especially since the 73% graduation rate means roughly 1 in 4 students don't finish.
