<p>...good luck. </p>
<p>My gf got word from admissions that applications increased. </p>
<p>They have 900 applications for 60 spots in the freshmen class. Ouch!!!</p>
<p>I dont know how many were accepted ED, but the acceptance rate should be in the single digits this year for architecture. </p>
<p>cheers! :)</p>
<p>wow theres only 60 spots? i thought it was more...</p>
<p>wow! 900 applicants! that's insanely high..are you sure this statistic is correct?</p>
<p>i feel lucky</p>
<p>yeah, that's for RD, ED is much much easier. </p>
<p>I guess the key to getting in is to do decent at the summer program and be a URM (or, have a brilliant portfolio ... my gf had to rely on that).</p>
<p>is your gf's portfolio online?? I am curious because I think you mentioned that the aadcom thought it was one of the best the best they've seen~</p>
<p>no, it is not. Last time I knew, admissions had a copy of it to show prospective students what a sample portfolio looked like. </p>
<p>It had around 15 or so samples of work, i forget the exact number. Only one or two were actually architecture related, the rest were mostly art samples of all sorts.</p>
<p>last year about 400 students applied RD for architecture. i find an increase of 500 applicants hard to believe...</p>
<p>last year there was 800 total
and 700 the year before</p>
<p>this is info given from admissions to a current student dirrectly.</p>
<p>this might clear it up a little. in comparison to last year- that is insane. jsut check this out:</p>
<p>keep in mind these stats above deal with not only architecture but also art and planning. overall, 65 students are admitted into the architecture program...makes it about 40% of all of the entering students into the AAP program.</p>
<p>which also makes it even more nerve wracking for those applying to either...</p>
<p>crap, this is depressing</p>
<p>it is.
i'm waiting for the 30th to come.</p>
