It's a great school for architecture and design. It is very focused on architecture and not as much for interior architecture. The school itself is small and there aren't enough computers for all the students to use. There aren't any sports teams which is kind of a downfall. It would be nice to have faster running computers as well.
Review Boston Architectural College
We have first Friday where every month there is a small party, but many people don't go as the food is just okay. The only other time the school throws a party is the end of the year Parti in the spring. It's a formal occasion where you dress up, eat good food, and can have drinks at the open bar. It's most likely the only time everyone truly comes together.
In the end I always end up getting my financial aid. However you have to call them multiple times and remind them to do their job. It's also quite common to not receive your financial aid until quite late into the semester. Many of my friends always have problems with receiving financial aid as the office doesn't make an easy process at all. The only thing to do is cc every head in the department and then continually call them in order to get what you need.
