That's a high enough GPA to get you past any gate-keeper screening processes at any M.Arch program. But, as long as your GPA is above any stated minimum threshold (frequently 3.0) grades aren't usually one of the most important factors in admissions to the top M.Arch programs. Portfolio and letters of recommendation are often the make-or-break factors. Your Statement of Purpose can also be very important. Grades and GRE don't factor in very heavily unless they're so low as to cause concerns, or the committee is looking for "tie breaker" factors between otherwise equally qualified finalists.

Thank you very much. Some people here say than unless you have 3.8 or higher it is hopeless dream to be approved for example at Harward or Prinston or anu form the Ivy league. I was wondering if here are anyone with such GPA(3.5) who was approved. I am also very interested in their story.
