<p>If you have been accepted to an architecture school, can you post your SAT and GPA. I'm a junior in high school and I'm interested in architecture but would like to know what schools I should apply to. My SAT is 2180, is that good enough for UT, Carnegie Mellon, VT?</p>
<p>2180 is definitely good enough for those schools. </p>
<p>Now, you just have to be able to show a passion for architecture. Make sure you educate yourself about the process of becoming an architect, and the schools themselves. Try to visit each school at least once. Also, your grades will obviously be very important. Make sure you have an ability to draw.</p>
<p>btw, I had a 2110 and was accepted to PSU, VT, CMU, and Syracuse.</p>
<p>Good luck!!</p>
<p>2180 here too, but they don’t care so much for SATs and GPAs as they do your portfolio for some schools.</p>
<p>2230Singletake, 2310combined out of two and a 3.6UW 3.9~4.0W</p>
<p>Accepted at Syracuse, USC, CMU for the B.arch programs. Rejected by Cornell and Calpoly SLO.</p>
<p>As earlier posters have said, most of these schools weigh very heavily on the portfolio, particularly if it is a requirement. Schools like Calpoly SLO and Vtech don’t even consider a portfolio, and the only factor is numbers and perhaps Extra Curriculars. There’s a LOT of variance in the acceptances to different programs, because each school is looking for a different kind of student.</p>

<p>Accepted to CMU, USC, Syracuse, IIT, WUSTL</p>
<p>I agree with the others: Your portfolio is VERY important.</p>
<p>OP - One of the first things you need to know is that there are at least three different routes to a professional degree in architecture. One way is to get a five year Bachelor of Architecture (BArch). The other way is to get a four year BS or BA in an architectural, studio-based program. You then go on to a 1.5 to 2.0 year masters program to get a Master of Architecture (MArch) The third way is to get an undergraduate degree in any field you want and then go for a three year masters program for an MArch. </p>
<p>So, your first question for a school is whether you are applying for a BArch or BA/BS architectural program. Then your second question is whether or not the school requires (or desires) a portfolio. In general, schools that do not require a portfolio are going to be much more numbers-based - higher GPA’s and higher SAT/ACT scores are of the most importance at those schools. Schools that do require a portfolio tend to put a lot (not all, by any means) of emphasis on the portfolio in their admissions decision.</p>
<p>Having said all that, D2 was accepted into the BArch programs at VT & PSU and into the BS Architecture programs at Cincinnati & Kent State. (The only architecture programs she applied to, and, incidentally, none of which required a portfolio.) Her stats were: SAT - 2020/WGPA - 4.40/UWGPA - 3.97. She also had some architecture related EC’s.</p>
<p>2260 wl at cooper union
is there anyone got acceptance decides not to go to cooper union?</p>
<p>My friend got accepted to Syracuse’s program. He has something like a 1700 combined SAT and 90 GPA.</p>
<p>I know someone who got into syracuse but not rpi; I got into rpi but not syracuse… So schools are looking for different things.</p>
<p>Essays and portfolio are v. important! Make sure you get across what makes you different from all the other people applying. For the supplement essay, I forgot to even mention why CMU and just babbled about architecture. If you can show that it’s something you really want, I think it’ll be a huge boost.</p>
<p>SAT - 2300 on the 3rd try, accepted CMU, VT, Tulane, ND, and UofMN</p>
<p>CMU was the only one of those that I submitted a portfolio to. Got rejected from Cornell, but it was an ED app, and my portfolio (and supplement essay) was atrocious in November–so remember portfolios count!!!</p>
