<p>ayemehelle, your stats show you have a broad and varied experience which should help you. Your request though is pretty broad and dependant on many variables. I suggest you go to the Assoc of Colleg of arch schools. You have to sign up to view all the 134 architecture schools in the US [ACSA</a> 3.0: SEARCH](<a href=“http://www.archschools.org/guide_search/home.aspx]ACSA”>http://www.archschools.org/guide_search/home.aspx)</p>

<p>Read about the schools then go to the websites where you will learn about their specifics and sometimes they tell you exactly what you need to get in to their school. ie CAl Poly SLO and Virg tech require a 4.0. Penn state entrance is primarily based on GPA and SAT.</p>

<p>In your first group of schools, Northeastern will probably be the easiest. Wentworth is also in Boston and may be easier to get in. In RI, there is Roger Williams. Someone already told you about Philadelphia Univ.</p>

<p>Univ of Washington is actually hard to get in since they don’t let you apply to the Arch program until the end of your Soph year and then it is based on your portfolio. They tell you this entirely at their website.</p>

<p>Univ of Boulder has an BS in Envir design program which is different that Arch studies but no portfolio needed to enter. I believe their site states the average GPA was 3.6.</p>

<p>I don’t know anything about Illinois. Good luck</p>

<p>@ayemehelle. If you don’t mind. Can you tell me which schools you heard back from? because I have similar stats and would like to see where I’m at. Thanks</p>
