<p>Hi. I got accepted to UIUC and Syracuse (i applied both for architecture) and Im considering between those two schools. Which school has better architecture program?</p>
<p>I would think go for UIUC. I am also looking into architecture. Would you mind posting your stats, date applied, and date accepted into UIUC?</p>
<p>My SAT score was really low (Not even 1800). Since I am an international student, I decided to take toefl (did okay) and I also had good GPA..
Anyway, I submitted my apps. on dec. 19 through online and accepted on January. (not sure exact date) UIUC's arch program is 4 yrs and Syracuse's is 5 yrs. someone says 5yrs program is better than 4 yrs.. so I guess i will possibly end up at Syracuse, also Syraucse is in NY (im living in NY) but UIUC is more prestigious. It is really difficult to choose between them.</p>
<p>The UIUC program is very strong. The faculty really concentrates on the basics therefore the academic foundation is solid. The Versailles program is considered to be the #1 study abroad program for arch students. Sorry, I don't know much about Syracuse's program.</p>
<p>You will really need to investigate the specifics regarding differences in 4 and 5 year programs. Some 5 year programs will give you a BS and some will grant an MS. </p>
<p>Here's a link to one of the best discussions regarding arch schools.

<p>Good luck.</p>
<p>I am screwed. Will a very low verbal score hurt me badly? I have a 4.0w GPA, top 10%, an architecture summer internship (paid), but I have a 700m and 490v... :(</p>
<p>Syracuse is very high up in the rankings though,,, while UIUC is not even in the top 10</p>
