I just applied to SCAD. and SPSU. hammer87; make sure you look into a school that has the accreditation from the NAAB. http://www.naab.org/cal_cat1724/cal_cat.htm <that may help you.
Goodluck.
Gerry

What many individuals will do is:
1) Start at a junior college and transfer into an architecture program.
2) Start as an "undecided" major in that University then transfer into the architecture program after your required classes (Science, math, etc) are taken.
3) Start in an architecture program that's not accredited yet is affliated (or has a transfer program with) an accredited program. My school, Southern Illinois University, had a good Bachelors program in Architecture that wasn't accredited, yet it transfered well into the University of Illinois and their Masters Degree program which is an accredited institution.
Personally I never went on to an accredited University as I was able to achieve my career goals without actually becoming an Architect... and my Bachelors was enough to open the doors of many firms that simply wanted a good, knowledgable, designer/detailer and my career went off in other directions from there. (From designing homes to teaching architects./ designers how to design within their computer applications).

that is one of the main reasons i left the state of Michigan when i went to College. the only real options for me were Univ. of Detroit, Univ of Michigan, or Lawrence Tech (with U-M being the only school i actually applied to). if i remember correctly, there are a couple decent programs down in Ohio and a few more in Illinois (i dont remember any in Indiana, but i wasnt looking there). i ended up out here in LA at USC. it was a great decision for me at that point in my life, but since i was admitted (1997), tuition/room & Board/fees have gone up nearly $15,000 and entrance requirements have gone through the roof.
