Hi guys!! I’m a senior in high school form New Jersey and I want to get into the B-Arch 5 year program at CMU very badly !! 3 members of my family are successful architects or own a architecture company so I’m pretty familiar with the job and the intensity of it, I am also pretty good at sketching and drawing and my parents and teachers always admire my new creations. I went on the CMU website and saw that 55% of the students applied were accepted to the program (even though only like 350 people applied) and also that their average UW GPA is 3.66 and ACT is 31. I want to give you my stats so you can chance me and tell me if I have a chance or not !!
