I have recently finished my UK Part I and am applying to programs in the States to complete my studies (I am an American citizen). Does anyone have experience applying to M. Arch programs from a foreign background?
Specifically, does anyone has experience whether a Part I is the equivalent of a B. Arch, and therefore, applicants should apply to an M. Arch II program. Or, is it better to try and get credit (for those schools that accept 2nd year Masters students) for an M. Arch I or just start at M. Arch Year 1.
from what i understand... part I is a same as Bsc Architecture -- not a five year BArch...
i dont know this for sure, but as the british degrees are only 3 years and you still need to get diploma (not an option) to get qualified, i think it's a safe assumption that is not the same as a full BArch.
