i am certain that the university of toronto is a significantly stronger program than northeastern in boston, resources, faculty, and student body. i have no direct knowledge of NCSU nor SCAD.

Thanks buds. for sure U of Toronto is stronger than the rest..however I wonder if I can practise for being an atchitect in america by holding a degree accredited by CACB rather than NAAB?

I thought U of T was NAAB accredited.

utoronto is NAAB accredited or at least recognized. I am certain that a professional M.Arch degree from utoronto will be recognized by NAAB. the architecture school explicitly states this in their printed bulletin, and it may be on their website as well.

i believe the answer is yes- accredited degrees in canada are recognized by the NAAB. double check with toronto- but i was looking at UBC and they were very clear about that.
