Has anyone accepted an offer to architecture? If so, how much did it cost to accept a spot?


I believe when you accept your offer on OUAC that part is free, then theres residence deposit for like $400 which is accepted starting May 1st. Then theres the tuition deposit due in June which your not allowed to pay until mid May. at least I think thats how it works.
I don't think it costs money to reserve your spot per se until the tuition deposit is due.
Can anyone confirm this I may be a wrong ?

First year tuition, not including residence fee, is about $7500-8500 ish... i dont remember exactly.... Then if you factor in the fees for printing and supplies during the year, that's another.. 300? maybe?

hey,
I would say that one mistake would be the chair, just due to the fact that people can make those from kits, and it wouldn't be very likely to them that you were involved with designing it at all,

The drawings are good but a little conservative, I believe most architecture schools are looking for more creativity and the ability to make connections in your work, rather than just drawings.
that being said it looks like you have some fundamentals, however the focus of architecture portfolio shouldn't be if you can draw or build it should be more focused on if you can design and create.

thats just my opinion based on what I've seen admitted

In my opinion yours is better than mine in many ways,
I really like your stuff, especially the self portrait, the camera and the prospective drawing

Have you not yet been accepted?
I've updated a few things too,, my drawings are much more loose than yours, you definitely have more practice and patience for such things,,

@clhuynh, I have no idea, that's so weird!
I think I remember reading this somewhere that if I accept an offer to one university on OUAC, it won't affect my other applications; can someone confirm this?

I accepted my offer to Ryerson the other day and none of my offers got cancelled! It still says "Offer" beside all of them, so I think your offers should be fine!

Congrats on your acceptance! I'm not sure I'm going to ryerson, but if I do, I will live on res for the first year, I havent looked at their residences though. When do you apply for them?

@jhlee1018: they should be sending out another wave of portfolios as waterloo just did their acceptances!

thanks guys! ^^

@jhlee1018
I got my acceptance early April through e-mail and about a few days later it appeared in OUAC. I got the solid letter in the mail today, but then again, I don't check my mail often so it might've been sitting there for a while LOL
Guidance updated my midterm a couple days ago.
and I think your portfolio is much better than mines, so don't worry too much :)

@krankd
You start applying for Res on May 1 and the deadline is June 6. I haven't looked at their residences in real life, but they have a virtual tour and the residences don't look too bad!

Something thats really bothering me is that someone in my school got in but they have a mark below 60 for physics for midterm. They got in before midterms went out tho and for my school the midterm marks were only put up onto OUAC likes yesterday and apparently universities wont see the marks until may 8th o-o so i dont noe what thats gonna mean for me.....
