Help deciding on an architecture school

College Majors Architecture Major

<p>Well, i got most of my acceptances for my architecture undergrad programs (still waiting on cooper). And i have absolutely no idea where to go... i've been visiting the schools, one at a time, trying to make up my mind. I was hoping someone on this forum could help me!
So i was accepted into:
Penn state's 5 year architecture program
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's 5 year architecture program
Pratt institute's 5 year architecture program
Syracuse's 5 year architecture program
Drexel's 4+2 architecture program
And i was wait-listed into:
Northeastern's Architecture program and
wait-listed into Lehigh's architecture program</p>

<p>I really like RPI as a school and same goes for Pratt but am unsure of how good their architecture programs is. As for the rest, i have no idea!! can anyone help? any input would be helpful.

<p>id say looking to [Archinect</a> | Connecting Architects Since 1997](<a href=“http://www.archinect.com%5DArchinect”>http://www.archinect.com). It’s a website dedicated for architecture only. </p>

<p>all those schools you got into have different focuses. you gotta ask yourself where you want to be end up, like:</p>

<ol>
<li>do i want to be in ny?</li>
<li>do i want to work in a corporate firm?</li>
</ol>

<p>or how serious are you into architecture?</p>

<p>a 5 year, b.arch is definitely intensive and it’s for people are who serious into architecture. You’ll save a year as oppose to the 4+2 route so you’ll save money. It’s also good if you don’t want to stay in school for so long.</p>

<p>Pratt is good btw; heard some good connections to some firms in NY, but dont quote me. Definitely check out the site I told you.</p>
