    Just discovered your channel and loving it! In my country we take our diplomas separately from highschool so i actually took a diploma in archi for 3 years. Completed it but didnt pursue any further. Watching your vlogs makes me miss the culture invoked in architecture schools. The model making nights, crit sessions, the consumptions if architecture schools are not for the week thats for certain. Not too sure abt other unis but in my uni our batch has grown so attached to each other since we only see each other most of the time (got no time to socialize with other friend groups when the semester starts!) but i truly love my studiomates. They’re the best. Good luck in your journey with architecture!

    Hi, I’m planning on majoring in architecture in the fall and I was just wondering how difficult it was?

    • @KaitelynHaynes
      @KaitelynHaynes  Před 4 lety +31

      Yay! Architecture is such an amazing major, it truly is so diverse in how it can be applied to future jobs. I'm not even going to lie, being a major in Arch at USC is super time consuming. First semester was especially difficult since we were literally getting introduced to a subject we had basically no experience in. It's so rewarding though, and your hard work pays off! The difficulty level will also vary depending on who your individual professor is! I'm planning on making a video about my first year experience, so stay tuned :)

    • @mattdimaggio3917
      @mattdimaggio3917 Před 4 lety +7

      Hi Morgan I’m a high school junior pursuing architecture. kaitelyn uses a Mac, but the program you are most comfortable with should coincide with the laptop brand. If you like revit get a windows computer, if you like sketch up get a Mac. If you like both get windows, you can use a sketch up website, and you can get autodesk inventor or fusion 360 which is similar to sketch up, but more focused to engineering.

    Hey! Planning on getting a 16 inch macbook for architecture school. Thoughts on using mac for architecture? Do you run bootcamp for revit? If so, how is it? Thanks!

    • @KaitelynHaynes
      @KaitelynHaynes  Před 4 lety

      i actually have the 16in and it works so well! i personally do not run boot camp, and i’ve had no problems using rhino at the same time as illustrator, CAD, etc. we don’t use revit in the curriculum for first years so i haven’t had much experience with that. i have friends/professors that run boot camp and some say they prefer boot camp since rhino is like slightly better than on mac, but some that have partitioned their computers don’t even switch between the two sides since it gets quite annoying after a while. PCs and desktop macs render a lot faster than macbooks, however the adobe suite is a lot more user friendly on macs. the newest macs render quite fast, but it’s pretty common for upper year students with macbooks to invest in a cheap pc to render so they can multi task.

    I've applied to USC arch as well. Any advice for incoming freshman? EX. What laptop to buy? What to study ahead? Courses to take? How is the summer program?
    Thanks

    • @KaitelynHaynes
      @KaitelynHaynes  Před 4 lety +3

      here's some quick advice-
      incoming freshman: reach out and make connections (w/ professors and students) from the very beginning! networking is so important.
      laptop: get the highest processing core and biggest screen as possible! MacBooks pros are my go to, but PCs often give the same rendering speed at half the cost.
      studying ahead: learn how to use the adobe suite and autocad! you'll thank me later.
      courses: your freshman year will be a huuuge learning curve, so make sure not to load your first semester with too many GE credits outside of architecture. i came in with a lot of AP credits, but if you aren't I would recommend taking one GE per semester to space them out. your counsellor will send you a recommended list catered to what you need!

      i would recommend not having a job first semester if possible (just to get adjusted to school as a whole) however once you go through that and get a feel for the pace of school then you can have a better picture of if you think you can manage it.

    • @TheGravyson

      @Anton Anton Actually, if you ask any architecture major at a respectable school, they will tell you that if you care about your project, you will be spending a lot of time in the studio and pulling all-nighters. It shows how dedicated you are to the work you won't mind pulling all-nighters. If you see Kaitelyn's video, she shows an impressive amount of dedication and discipline because she balanced ROTC and Architecture, which is an impressive feat. So I would recommend you think about what you are saying before you say people don't have discipline.

      i got a merit scholarship for a portion of tuition, however the type i got is only available to freshman applicants. besides that, i did not get aid, so i would suggest discussing finances with your parents or inquiring into out of school scholarships. i’ve earned some pretty large sums from writing essays for these non USC funded scholarships!
