haha, yes I know… you said you were going to cosumnes river college because you said so in the first post.

thus, I commented saying I transfered to UCLA from there.

my gpa was 3.8
I didn’t finish IGETC either, but yet still applied
I didn’t do any of the computer design courses that cal poly required me to do,
so…

I got accepted into:
UCB
UCLA

rejected:
calpoly-SLO
Calpoly-pomona

my advice is that you are in this profession because you have a passion for it. Do keep in mind that it’s a low-salary pay profession and you need to win it to earn it. I advise you that you critique yourself and make sure you can handle it. I can’t stress this enough because it saves a lot of time, and if I had to do it all over again, I would’ve gone to an engineering degree first, and then apply for a masters in architecture. Do I regret making this decision to go here as undergrad? in good days, no, bad days, yes. When are these bad days? when I have to pull all-nighters like crazy. So just BE ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE you are in architecture because you ABSOLUTELY love it. I’ve seen so many people come and go when I was at CRC and only one person dropped out from here. But if you plan on continuing this field, do your best in every project you and compose a portfolio so you can be ready to submit. Good luck to your future architecture endeavors.
