hi Alexa
I am just a mom, not a cheerleader or an architect. I do know something, however, about the demands of D1 football programs (and cheer and band) on students that participate. Several of your choices have D1 football (Syracuse, Penn State, Ohio State, Clemson…) and so you would be traveling a lot and practicing a lot which are generally thought to be incompatible with demanding majors like engineering and architecture. At the school I work at (also D1 football), they recommend a lower fall credit load for all the football types, including cheerleaders. That might be a problem for the focused architecture major…not sure. Not sure if this is helpful, but I did find your combo of interests to be really interesting and I wish you luck.
