So I'm sure some of you have seen my recent posts, the stupid one's (I use this site, cause a lot of you are finished with school and have serious knowledge about Architecture.) My question is this:
Are you allowed to work part-time while in architecture School??? I've heard that your first two years you can't but that you get into some sort of internship in your third year.....do they frown on after school part time jobs???
Debating whether an architecture degree is in my future, cause if I can't work part time, I have to give up my passion....
i worked for a professor's office for the last three years that i was in arch school undergrad. the danger of doing this is that it may be the best job in architecture that you ever have.
Its not impossible, but it almost is...
It also depend on the class schedules being offered at the school you are interested...But you have to have really good time management plan into play..or else you wont make it.
If you are thinking about partying and stuff like that ...You wont be able to make it...
You will have to commit yourself to Your new world of Architecture School.....
You will probably be able to work 20 hours a week at your job and 60+ at school...
I remember when I wanted to go to Cambridge really badly, and it said you were not aloud to work on the site. So I've lost hope on going there.
It would have been perfect to, because I want to move to either America or England, well maybe America. But I can't afford to go to a school like that and not work.
Actually I like this question I want to see what some people have to say.
I think I could manage a tiny bit of partying, 20 hours of work and 60+ hours of school
Right now I usually do 7 hrs of school, 1 hour rugby, then 7 hours of work. Then an hour or 2 of hw.
University and work can't take up more time then that in a day right?
Maybe 4 hrs 5 times a week insteAd of the 7hrs 3 times week I do.
But for highschool I don't need lots of time for hw.
ugh. I think I'm taking a year off b4 uni. I need a brake.
But its true it takes a whole lot more time then that....
You will get use to sleeping 4 to 6 hrs a week, and when presentations and projects are due you can actually see your self going with out sleeping for a few days...
work while you go to school ... i will be one of the best things that you can do for your career...you wont be totally at the bottom of the todum pole when you graduate...it could be the difference of making 35,000 a year as compared to 50,000-55,000 a year starting out after graduation. - even if its only 10-20 hours a week...anything that will get you the edge over the other guy
whatthefuk - you can't work at school in the US because you aren't American... American students at American schools are allowed to work. But as I understand, you can't hold 2 visas at the same time, so therefore you would not be able to LEGALLY work. But if you found a job at a pub or washing dishes or whatever, you could work to help pay the bills, as long as the tax man doesn't find out.
Working while in Architecture School..Is it a NO NO?

60+ (meaning 60 at the rare minimum).......
But its true it takes a whole lot more time then that....
You will get use to sleeping 4 to 6 hrs a week, and when presentations and projects are due you can actually see your self going with out sleeping for a few days...
But like I SAID 60+ on a good week

And yeah, I know it's illegal. Bite me.
Umm, yah because I wasn't born at St. Lukes hospital in New Bedford Masschuettes (sp?)
oh, and cambridge is in England.
You really confuse me.
Either way, when you are an 'international student,' you aren't allowed to work.
If you're from Massachusetts, how come you can't spell it?
I think that's what was throwing me off from your other posts (the sketchy spelling and grammar).
I have horrible spelling, shoot me?
and I lived there for 6 months, you can't expect me to really care I was born there, its just where my happened to be when i decided to pop out early.
but it does work to my advantage seeing as i might want to move there one day.
