The rigor/competitiveness of the architecture major itself I do not know so well, but I do know that landscape architecture is one of the most competitive majors at the University of Washington. Knowing that, I’ll probably assume that architecture is not so easy. But know that UW does not base the admission process on the applicant’s intended major. If the applicant is qualified then he or she is generally accepted-regardless of the indicated major. If I recall correctly, UW students do not actually go into their major until the junior year, thus an “ineffective major” for admissions. You shouldn’t worry so much about the major indicated on your application.

I don’t know how “not so good” your SAT score was, but based on your GPA and AP classes you seem like a perfect candidate for UW Hope you hear good news
