<p>I have been applying to top architecture programs and there seems to be much debate over the relevancy of DE's architecture rankings. What schools would "you" consider as the best programs in the United States? Do practicing architects look more favorably on five year professional degrees than 4-2 programs? If one went to an IV league university (except Cornell) and then to a fantastic graduate program, would that be "better" than attending a top 5 year undergraduate program? please answer some of these questions and voice your opinion about what undergraduate architecture programs are the best.</p>
<p>Do you mean the DI rankings? I'd take them with several grains of salt. </p>
