NewSchool of Architecture & Design

For profit school with little concern for student success

First, NewSchool is a for profit architectural university. Meaning nearly everyone is accepted to the school despite their poor performance previously and honestly the fact that they should pursue another profession. This school is devaluing the architecture profession and especially the Bachelor of Architecture degree.

I recommend applying to either Cal Poly, UC Berkeley, or UCLA if you want quality education for a fair price. If price isn't an issue, Woodbury in San Diego or LA, CCA, or out of state are much better as evidenced by their faculty and student work. Remember, you are paying more in tuition then you would to go to Harvard, so don't make the decision in haste. Demand better!

3 of 5 of the thesis professors here have no more than 2 years of experience and only 2 of the 5th year thesis professors are licensed. Good Luck!
