non-arch major / GPA: 2.8 Major: 3.5 / GRE: 1350 / Three Excellent Recs / Solid Personal Statement / My drawing professor tells me that my portfolio is pretty good (all drawings) / I've taken all of the calc and physics prereqs along with some art history courses
so i need some advice on which schools I should be looking at. i'm interested in mass., nyc, cali, canada, and europe (sorry, i know that's a lot) i'd appreciate any input
Try some of the public schools as a fall back position. They tend to fly in under the radar with many prospective students and tend to have more openings and lower tuition. See if you can request an interview.
And as a FYI, they all say they want the math but nothing I ever did required anything beyond a basic Trig knowledge (and yes, I did have the math and physics).
