hellooo im going to washu next year as a design major and i just wanted to say your vlogs are so helpful and cool and they make me really excited to go there in a couple months! also the fact that i recognize that baekjeong haha i live only 20 minutes away from it so our homes must really not be far apart(also the airport lol). who knows, we might see each other next year or smth like that!! thanks so much for all the effort you put in these :)) best of luck on finals!
Hey, Grace! I am Viktoria and I really want to study in WashU. I wasn't sure what I wanted to study, but I knew I wanted it to be math-oriented. At some point I became very interested in Architecture, but not the ART type of architecture like very beautiful greenery or weirdly shaped modern buildings, instead the housing structure type of architecture. I very much love it. The only problem to me was the annual salary, because for my standards it is low, and listen, money is not my top priority, but as someone who left their whole life to come to America to study, and risked everything they had, I am very much looking for a high payed field. This is why I redirected to Computer Science and gave up on architecture. When I saw the part of the video when you were showing that you're studying for CS class, this gave me some hope that you can somehow mix the architecture and cs fields in your study in WashU. I wanted to ask if your major is architecture and why are you taking a cs class. Also, I know that for WashU architecture major you'll need to submit a portfolio of your work, but the thing is that I have absolutely no experience in architecture, besides one class I took second semester of my junior year in hs. Do you know how would that work? Also, do you have any information about this whole thing that could help me? It is very much needed and I will appreciate anything!!❤❤❤
hi viktoria! i actually relate to a lot of what you said- i always had an interest in architecture but didn’t get to take classes on it, and learning that it’s not a high salary job despite all the work needed made me become hesitant to commit to it. but for me, i felt like i would regret not even trying it out if i chose to not do architecture. i actually applied to washu as a psychology major (which was my second interest) instead of architecture because i also didn’t have a portfolio to submit. i primarily wanted to go to washu because of the open curriculum and easy switching between schools, so i took architecture courses my first semester and switched my major! so this is definitely an option if you’re not sure what you want to study. now about CS, i took that class out of interest apart from architecture so i’m not completely sure how to incorporate them together, but i know a few people in architecture who are double majors and minors in CS. i feel like anything has at least some connection to architecture, and not everyone majoring in architecture continues in the field (and a lot of ppl change majors after the first semester haha) so you don’t have to commit to just one area of study! sorry this got long ahhh but overall i suggest just trying out what interests you! i hope this helps 🫶🏻
