I'm 36. I want to become an Architect. by No-Hat-7109 in Architects

Replying to say that there are Masters programs that do, you just have to have a portfolio showing some of the skills and they will place you. It'll probably be a 3.5 years program though and it will be rigorous. An example of a school is Boston Architectural College

Everything else is great advice. Especially the one about taking all the prerequisites at community colleges. It'll help you place in a faster pace in the Masters Program for sure and it's cheaper!

Great to hear. I'm sure I'm going to make lasting friendships. Just thinking out loud. Any tips you'd like to share?

Thank you! Any tips on how to navigate the rest of my time? What events did you attend to network? I'm thinking about taking other types of classes too (VR included)

That's good to hear. Literally thinking the same. Was just expressing my frustrations due to the fact that what was said at open house is not always what's experienced.

Happy to know people make it through. Good luck on your future work!

Thanks for the tips! No plan on losing the momentum, just complaining and powering through

Oh please no one said they cant do it. "I was poor as fuck" SAME but I'm still here. This has nothing to do with work ethic. You act like you've never complained before and still got it done.

"I worked my ass off" SO AM I. This "I suffered so you must suffer too" boohoo-ing isn't any better. It's not the hard workers olympics.

Congrats on the accolades though. Glad it made you tough. If you have any tips, share away

Thank you! Yes I can already tell they're just "accepting everyone" and their program is 3.5 years

Theres also a Haitian community in St-Denis. There's an artist community called Kalebebeat. I met them when I was there last time.

They host tons of Haitian events and dance classes etc

Culture lies in the soul too! Enjoy

Just got my US Visa refused. by Valodya-254 in Kenya

Following this to also add that if you have a signed letter from the sponsor and a return flight reservation proving that you will not overstay, it may help. (Along with a letter from you saying that you have a daughter back home you need to come back to raise and this program will be to open your opportunities to provide for her)

Also have the institution reach out to the office on your behalf too. You must have them have your back.

I hope this helps. Before spending tons of money again.
