Estimating Your Cost
Printing This site is a starting point for a basic estimate for simple and standard format projects. More complicated projects will have to be priced out. Photography The college has a photographer on retainer for select periods. If you would like to have some photos taken please call us to discuss it. A good photographer can cost $250/hour or more. Stock photography is another option that can be less expensive, depending on the image requirements. We will guide you in the right direction. Mailing Decide how you want to mail your brochure. First class (the most expensive)? Bulk? Does it have variable data? Will it be a self-mailer or go into an envelope? All of these issues can affect cost. Variable Data A form of printing in which elements such as text, graphics and images may be changed from one printed piece to the next. This technique adds to the cost of a job.
