The Writing Concentration within the English major is also selective, applicants must submit a portfolio of written pieces.

HMS09,
When my D visited with an arch prof and students in the department a couple of years ago, she was told that most applicants made it into the major, but that not everyone got into their preferred track (architecture and design; architecture: history, theory, and criticism; and architecture and urban studies). I’ve never seen any numbers and I’m not sure how accurate this is, so hopefully if there are arch students on the forum, they will speak up.
