Boston Architectural College Reviews

"I love Boston Architectural College its staff is professional, patience and has an excellent customer service. I transfered from a public Texas University, because the professors did not want to take the time to teach me with diligence the matter subjects at the time, since architecture was not my bachelor the experience was horrible! I am an A student, and I was getting Cs in this mediocre place, and I was extremely frustrated. As soon as I transferred to the BAC things were different not easy but I was learning and understanding. The professors had the patience and the time to teach me. I am extremely happy in this University, they are a diverse and high-quality service and excellent professors. I will be graduating in Fall 2022 when at one point I thought architecture was impossible to reach for me they made it possible. I am prepared and ready to practice. I highly recommend this University it is worth every single Pennie!!Read Less"

"My criticism is that the school did not have any flexibility when the Deep Recession hit. This created unnecessary stress when we were already trying to work full time and also go to school. You attend classes in person for 1 week per semester and do all of the rest online and in contact with your professors. This seemed like a real world way of working today. Skype and email and ftp sites became ways to communicate and transfer information back and forth."

"A 5 year grad program is much to long, in this case it isn't about the quality of education as much as the need for financial support. The work load is difficult and challenging, which for the program I chose was expected, however the criteria of which you are evaluated on is not always clear, and is often left to the personal opinions of the individual professor. (That being said, I've been blessed with knowledgeable, professional professors, however since faculty is mostly adjunct....there's no guarantee who will be teaching what semester.) Being in the heart of Boston is wonderful, culturally diverse, and rich in history. However there is no parking...So trucking architecture supplies around can be difficult some times of the year (i.e. all winter) Its a school where you need to know what you're getting into ahead of time. It's not easy, there's no hand-holding and the education will be only be as valuable as the amount if effort you put into it.Read Less"

"As an online student, I cannot rate fairly based on the criteria but overall, I would recommend this school to anyone if the program services their needs."

"As a graduate student there is no financial aid. As a commuter, there is no parking. As a student, resources are always avalible"
