expensive, not well respected, lots of idiots teach at this school - theyre not REAL architects. Little valuable knowledge thought- focus is on design and light on contraction. Tree hugging classes repeat material.

It is a self taught school.
Overall 1.4
This school is good if u want low rate profs with the Few decent ones. Morals n ethics are taught but not followed through 90% of the time. Ppl in studio r ur best source for learning and sanity. It is about who u know n r friendly with, not how good of a student u r n can be. I judge a school on if I would allow a child to attend, my answer is no.
