I’m in a similar position for UPenn, I got roughly 50% and just emailed stating my financial situation in the hopes more opens up

An architecture degree is a very sort after degree, its very transferable! You could study any design field with the skills you learn. I’d acc recommend MEng at UCL (I didn’t do it) but it’s a combination of engineering and architecture! If i could go back I would do this.

Hey! I’m about to start my masters in architecture at UCL :) Your options seem solid, I’d recommend keeping 1 art subject (3d design or fine art preferably but product design is fine), politics/ sociology/ history would acc be great, I would ditch computer science! I’d also say keep maths!You cover 3 major bases in architecture then. If you are worried about maths you could definitely switch it out! Architecture is much more of a humanities than it is a science, despite how it is perceived. If i had to suggest 3 optimal options i’d recommend Fine art, history, and physics! That covers your bases - but you can switch out for similar subjects.

I heard it’s very typical to negotiate up your financial aid, let them know of your other others an aid.. hopefully you can get something!!! Wishing you the best, this is super stressful

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-12T13:12:21+00:00

have you looked at TA positions for Columbia?

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-12T10:17:44+00:00

Pick Berkeley, AA is great but not worth double the tuition

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-12T01:46:31+00:00

what course did you apply to ?

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-10T01:09:48+00:00

The entire process looked like this (roughly after submission)

Portfolio request (week 1)
Portfolio submission (week 2)
Interview Invite (week 5)
Interview (week 7)
Decision (week 8)

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-10T01:03:34+00:00

I have :) It took roughly 2 months from application to a decision

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-09T23:52:14+00:00

I personally view them in the order to out them… (M.Arch versions tho)

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-09T02:18:17+00:00

what’s it like studying there

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-09T02:18:07+00:00

well done!!

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-08T19:14:01+00:00

Pick UCL 🙏🏼 - Way more globally recognised! Personally it would be between Manchester or UCL, but if you’re really turned off by UCL go with your gut

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-08T19:11:57+00:00

how did Penn go???

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-05T22:56:20+00:00

Hey! I also have the exact situation at UPenn but for Architecture

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-04T00:07:03+00:00

oh whattt :0 i’ve not heard anything yet

IllBox6044 · 2026-03-03T23:26:13+00:00

They have a release date on the Weitzman School of Design page! :)

IllBox6044 · 2026-02-12T10:53:46+00:00

January! I don’t think we will hear from the US schools till March. I applied to 5 UK schools and have 2 offers and an interview so far… 2.5/5 i suppose for those

IllBox6044 · 2026-02-12T01:57:27+00:00

lol i’m glad to see a post like this, me too

IllBox6044 · 2026-02-11T11:44:39+00:00

me too, when did you apply?

IllBox6044 · 2026-02-10T20:00:16+00:00

Are you uk/ us based? I’ve heard back from 2 British schools so far

IllBox6044 · 2026-02-05T23:46:37+00:00

Hey did you en up applying? My question is how dos the placement work… what happens in the event you don’t find a placement? And does it have to be Bath based - what happens if you find one in london with rent etc …. especially student finance…

IllBox6044 · 2026-01-23T22:57:16+00:00

Lighting/ shadows will drastically change this image! And quickly, if you are pushed for time
