Hi Everyone! If you'd like to work with me 1 on 1, you can now apply to my coaching program www.ashleyeusebio.com/work-with-me. Also, please note that the tuition costs noted in the video only include the program tuition fees and don't include the incidental fees or any additional University fees or program specific fees which are all non-tuition fees. I recommend checking out the websites for each program to review the full program costs. I also wanted to add that the Master of Architecture at UBC has a co-op program sala.ubc.ca/academics/enriched-educational-experiences/co-op AND McGill University also offers a PhD in Architecture, www.mcgill.ca/architecture/. The following are the video chapters: 0:00 Intro 1:46 University of British Columbia 9:59 University of Toronto 14:07 University of Waterloo
I'm from India can you help me out with how the Co op system would work and in total which is 2 years college then 2 years university which is co op how much would it cost? I'm a bit confused pls help out cause I wanna do architecture in canada and I can't figure out how much does it cost for a doing co op in architecture!!
@@keven11tween96 hi, I understood what you mean because I came in that situation too. In terms of "the architecture" that you wanted to do, does that mean you wanted to be licensed? Or just be working under architecture firm. There are lots of pathways, depending on your goal of course, in which Ashley's video would be helpful for you - that you can watch.
Hi @@charleneestabaya 😊You're welcome. UofT is a good option. I did my undergrad at Ryerson, it was ok. The program at Ryerson is very technically focused. Whereas the programs at UBC and UofT are more diverse and balanced (between design, and technical skills). I'll be doing a future video talking about all the master of architecture programs that are accredited so stay tune.
@@keven11tween96 the programs that come to mind with co-op programs include UBC and Waterloo. I would recommend checking out each university since the co-op programs can vary from school to school. For waterloo the co-op program has an additional cost. Check their website here for details: uwaterloo.ca/architecture/academic-programs/co-op and uwaterloo.ca/co-operative-education/your-co-op-fee . They break down the costs and the structure of the program. I would also get in contact with each program with your questions, they will be best to advise you on the co-op program.
As a former UBC student I have to say that the metrics for these rankings don’t always mean the program at that specific university is great. I remember looking at one of the metrics for one of these rankings and the size of the university, the library, even the number of hand sanitizers used or the number of cafes or accommodation raises the university ranking. Just don’t make a decision bases on university rankings.
Hi Shahin, this is a good point and your right it doesn't mean the program is great. I find the metrics help in providing some direction however finding the right fit does vary so much from individual to individual. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for making this comprehensive video! I'm planning on undertaking MArch in a couple of years - so your video is extremely helpful in my decision making process 👍
You're welcome Nicollo Abe! Happy to help 😊 Since you're looking into MArch programs I would also recommend watching this video on the 12 accredited Master of Architecture Programs; ua-cam.com/video/6pw2PjCV8kk/v-deo.html . It's a guide to the 12 professional programs.
UBC is my first choice for an architecture undergrad 😊 I’m so excited to apply later this year - I also look forward to your future video on your experience at UBC’s school of architecture
Hi Shirley,iam from India iam looking for masters in urban design is it possible to apply for UBC(i have scored 8 out of 10 in my undergraduate degree)
@@moneshr1392 the following are the admission requirements for the Masters of Urban Design at UBC sala.ubc.ca/admissions/master-urban-design . From the link it states " If you completed your degree at an international university, you must have a B+ average in all coursework." Also "Applicants from a university outside Canada in which English is not the primary language of instruction must provide results of an English language proficiency examination as part of their application. Tests must have been taken within the last 24 months at the time of submission of your application. The minimum scores are: TOEFL - 90 iBT or 577 paper based IELTS - Overall band score of 6.5 with a minimum score of 6.0 in each component of the academic (not general) test." Checkout the link for more details: sala.ubc.ca/admissions/master-urban-design
Hi Ashley, great video! Would you consider making a video regarding portfolio tips for students looking to apply to masters in architecture? I have no background in architecture and would definitely benefit from a video like that! Thanks
Hi Lucia! Definitely, I'm planning a future video with portfolio tips. I will also share my portfolio I used for my masters application. I appreciate the feedback 😊
You forgot to mentioned waterloo has a studio in Rome, Italy and all 3rd year students spend a semester studying there. The co-op is also a 2 year paid co-op which is specific only to waterloo's faculty of engineering programs :)
Hi Kirasgirl! Thank you for the feedback 😊 I didn't get into those details in this video but I'm thinking these details would be good to mention in a separate video. I'll add that on my list of future videos. I know UBC also has an abroad studio program and I believe UofT does as well. Thanks for letting me know about the Italy studio. I'll look into it further for another video.
Hey there just to clarify the above information is not correct. The rome studio is offered in the 4th year of study. Each student will study in the Rome studio for the first semester of the 4th year. The coop is not exactly 2 years. Rather you are give 6 coop opportunities whereby you have to find your own job. In order to graduate you must fulfill 5/6 coop slots. Coop is mandatory for graduation. I will also add the space for students is actually much larger than UofT. Each UG student gets his/her own assigned desk in the studio which is quite large. Uoft students dont have the same luxury as we are all crammed in studio desk rows with no separation (this is at the graduate level). The UG students at Uoft do not get assigned seating and thus have to fight for limited space.
I've watched the video multiple times - once before I applied M.Arch, and once I got admitted by the schools. Thanks Ashley for providing the info and doing all the research. I think you emphasize too much on the physical facilities and buildings instead of the quality of education, courses, as well as staff resources. UofT for sure has the newest fancy building, and Waterloo is an older retrofit. From what I heard, Waterloo students actually have much more spacious desk and studio, and in a better acoustic environment. While UofT students are cramped in the shiny open space. Also UofT's B.A Architecture degree is no way in the top 3 or 5 before McGill, Ryerson, or Carleton. I'd suggest you make a separate video of "Top 3 B.Arch / M.Arch in Canada".
Hi Simon, thanks for the feedback. You bring up some good points which I will look into. I did my undergrad at Ryerson and also attended Carleton for architecture (where I ended up switching programs) and I would not recommend the programs. From the program itself, to the building/ studio space, faculty, and the resources. Also, I think this depends on the individual and what you want to get out of your education along with what factors are most important to you. It is a bit of an individual by individual case however overall the schools do have global rankings which I took into consideration along with my experience of the programs.
Very concise video Ashley! I've just dropped out of UofT's undergrad in BA Architecture for a few reasons. I can't entirely speak on the facilities because due to Covid I wasn't able to use any, but the program itself felt very unorganized and leaning towards a stark arts degree. I would have to entirely disagree with the general ranking, after completing my first year I realized that many of my peers were more interested in art history and theory as well as the program seemingly not preparing students for professional work. Though all of this can be taken with a grain of salt because it was only my first year and it was also during covid, however, I did have a TA who had an undergrad from UBC in structural eng, who was now in the M.Arch program at UofT who found the undergrad program at UofT to be "pointless".
Hi Keith! Thank you for sharing your undergrad experience, this also gives me more insight. I think the masters or PhD programs might be a bit better then the undergrad program since it’s more focused. However, I have met a few people that finished the undergrad program at UofT and were able to find work. I feel like this really depends on the person as well and how you fit within the program. Maybe UBC would be a better fit for you or perhaps Waterloo which is more technical. Something to think about.
I would 100% agree with what you said. I graduated a year and half ago from Ryerson and their program is so much better than UofT's. UofT is very theory based while Ryerson is science based and you learn a lot of crucial things like structure, HVAC, sound, thermal performance and much more. It is brutal though. I was thinking of going to UofT for my master to take it a bit more easy and I'm a bit scared of Ryerson.
hello, could you provide more insight about why the UofT BA Arch program didn't suit you as well? I am currently applying to both UBC and UofT but I have seen a lot of comments about how the UofT program isn't as good and it has definitely made me very worried about applying to UofT 🥲
@@junhengtan8934 Its more theory and arts based and almost zero science based. Ryerson's Architecture program (Architectural science) is heavily based on structure and math. Which I know UofT provides none of I think UBS provides a better opportunity to learn these skills as its something you need to know to even get a job in the field (You do the jobs others don't want to do, meaning you will never design an actual building but rather do schedules, calculations and make sure everything meets code.) I also know UofT doesn't offer project management and building science courses, Ryerson does. Most firms hire people who have knowledge in these subjects because every project has jobs that need to be done relating to schedules and its not really fun and its very repetitive. To say in shorter terms. UofT will not get you into any Architecture Masters program unless you have these superb references and portfolio that surpasses anything they teach in their undergrad program. Very few jobs are out there for people who graduate from UofT's Architecture program (In architecture itself)
Hi Ashley, I’m from Perú in South America and I’m studying a BA architecture but i want to continue my studies in Canada, what would you recommend me??
Hi Sebastian! If your planning to continue on the journey of becoming a licensed architect in Canada, I would recommend the following video for more insight; ua-cam.com/video/WfQ0Vx7Uol0/v-deo.html and the CACB website; cacb.ca/academic-certification/ . If your planning to focus on working in the industry within Canada but without a licence, I would recommend the following videos for more insight: ua-cam.com/video/ULowG6EfVxo/v-deo.html , ua-cam.com/video/IfXnNkELFOE/v-deo.html , and ua-cam.com/video/qH7pdTURfl4/v-deo.html . And if working in the industry is the main focus learning and having skills in Revit is important. Also, you could always start working in the industry and then decide if you want to get your licence. I hope this helps.
Hi Ogulnabat! Thank you for the feedback. The numbers in the video only include tuition fees, I believe the 23k includes incidental fees which are non-tuition fees? I'll make sure to make that clear in the next and add a note to the video.
@@architecture_tv Hi! For architecture, the tuition fees are indicated separately on on-campus professional programs section, a little below the website. It was around 11k per semester without the incidentals. I was also dissapointed as I was accepting my offer. Great content btw. Cheers!
@@ogulnabatjumayeva7109 Thank you for this! Appreciate the feedback. Thats correct, I noticed that as well but to simplify things in the video I only included tuition fees and the university fee but didn't include the program incidental fees that were program specific in the chart you mentioned. I know the costs are disappointing, it's a lot to take in. I would look into scholarships and other ways of funding the degree. Try your best to limit the debt, you'll see the benefits in the long run. I've added a note to the video so that it's a bit more clear that there are additional costs to the tuition fees noted in the video. Nevertheless, congratulations on the acceptance offer!! 🎉The program is good and they also offer co-op which also has an additional cost but that will help to make a bit more money on the side. I recently posted a video with some ideas to help fund your degree which might help: ua-cam.com/video/X2YDZi7IcqY/v-deo.html . I'll be doing a video later this month about scholarships and how to find them which might also help you so stay tune. Keep me posted on your journey 😊
@@architecture_tv Thanks a lot! Hope to become an architect in Ontario like you. I've been binge watching your videos and looking forward for the new ones. Appreciate all the valuable information.
Hi Simon! Good to see you again, this can be said about many other programs. I know many M.Arch students from UofT that find jobs right after graduating while others take more time.
You're welcome! I don't know why the price difference is so much. Perhaps try getting in touch with the university maybe they can provide more information.
Hello Ashley! Ive been binge watching your videos thank you so much for all the infos and insights im planning on applying to masters at the UBC or university of Toronto and its really nerve wrecking cause it seems really hard to get in internationally im currently now an architect in Thailand and i really hope that i can go for master degree and start working in Canada your videos make me so hopeful to do so!! Thankyou💗
Hi Luktan! Anything is possible and nothing is impossible! I believe you can do it! I would start preparing and make a plan. Work hard on your portfolio, and keep planning. Don't be afraid to apply since nothing is impossible. Its wonderful to hear from you and I appreciate your kind words. I'm happy you found the channel and its great to have you apart of the community. Keep me posted on your journey 😊
Hi Ashley, My grade 12 son needs to make a choice between UoT and Waterloo. We are leaning towards UoT because of the location and over-all expenses. What’s the likelihood for UoT graduates to land a job after finishing the Master’s program as compared to Waterloo that has a Coop program?
As a current UofT student, I just finished my 3rd year at UofT BA Arch, I would say the BA was not amazing the first two years but it was an okay introduction to architecture. However, after 2nd year you are able to apply for a specialist in design. The design specialist studios are very well and I believe 3rd year at UofT is very good if you can make it into the specialist stream. They also offer design build studios and internship opportunities in the summer. Many of the people in the Design Specialist stream were able to go to great grad schools such as Harvard, Columbia, MIT, etc.
Hi! I just got admitted to MArch program from UCalgary and Waterloo. I don’t know how to choose those two university. I wanna work as an architect in Canada, could toy give me some advices about which uni I should go if I wanna work in Canada. As I know Waterloo has coop. But Calgary is bigger city, it must mean more job opportunities right ?
Hey Ashley, thanks for your video! It's very insightful. Does Ucalgary offer B.arch programs? If not is there any alternatives to it? I'm interested in doing my undergraduation in Ucalgary but it looks like they only offer M.arch! thanks in anticipation :)
Hi Amritha, thank you 😊 I'm happy to hear the content is helpful. I'll be posting a video on bachelor programs in architecture within Canada later this month. However, to get you started the University of Calgary has a unique program where the first year is a general university study and then you'd do a minor in architecture studies. The following are some program links for more info: sapl.ucalgary.ca/future-students/undergraduate/undergraduate-courses, and sapl.ucalgary.ca/future-students/undergraduate/minor-architectural-studies-arst . I hope this helps.
Hi Ashley, I think 11 architecture schools in Canada offer a master's degree. Can you review them just to know if they actually worth applying to? It'll be so helpful. Thank you so much! Your videos are great and so helpful.
Hi Hossein! You're welcome, I'm happy to hear the content is helpful. A video for accredited master programs is in the works. Thank you for the feedback 😊
Are design in architecture,landscape architecture and urbanism(UBC) and Bachelor of Science in Architecture(Mcgill) the same program? And would B.sc in architecture from mcgill be a good choice?
Hi Anonymous! Each program is different. I would recommend go through each program and going through all the courses to compare. McGill is also a good school to consider. I personally don't know much about the program however I know a few people that attended the program and loved it. Both UBC and McGill are great options, top tier schools in Canada. I hope this helps.

hello Ashley! hope you are doing fine. I'm an international student and planning to do a masters in Canada. Your videos are helping me a lot, Thank you so much. Can you enlighten me about the MASTER OF COMMUNITY AND REGIONAL PLANNING (MCRP), Urban Design Concentration in UBC. I've done my graduation in Architecture. I want to know what are the career options, how is the professional field and how is the job market. Do you think it would be a wise decision doing masters in MCRP or the field in Architecture will be better option career wise?
Hi Rahnuma! You're welcome, I'm happy to hear the content is helpful. I don't know much about the planning programs so I would recommend checking out the UBC website : scarp.ubc.ca/school .I would also check out the waterloo program ttps://uwaterloo.ca/planning/. They also have a video about planning along with details about what you can do with the degree. Ultimately planning or an architecture career are both good options, it really depends on what you enjoy doing.
@@rahnumasabbrina205 yes if you're doing your Masters in the US make sure it is an accredited program by the NAAB. For more information see the following link: cacb.ca/accredited-programs-outside-canada-usa/

Thank you for the video, I was wondering where I could find information on the requirements for UBC bachelor of architecture for students applying outside of Canada, particularly for those who are coming from the British school system (A-levels).
Hi Michael! You're welcome 😊 I would recommend getting in touch with the program coordinator since they would be the best person to contact for more information. I would also look into the program website here: sala.ubc.ca/admissions/undergraduate-admissions . But do get in touch with the program coordinator, they will be able to help and direct you to the information.
@@architecture_tvHello again, how could I be able to get in touch with the program coordinator? Also, I was looking at the undergraduate programs at UBC and saw two different programs, architecture and architecture, landscape architecture, and urbanism, are they different? Or am a possibly misunderstanding something?
Is UBC the only university that offers undergrad program in architecture within BC?. I have 80%+ average and it’s impossible to get in With these marks
Hi Mr.NoOne, an 80%+ average should meet the requirements for admission into UBC undergrad program. BCIT which is also in Vancouver offers bachelor in architectural science, www.bcit.ca/programs/architectural-science-bachelor-of-architectural-science-full-time-8050btech/ . It's important to note that meeting the academic requirements doesn't guarantee admission. So, it's important to build a solid portfolio.
Hi YJ! I don't have any personal experience and I don't know anyone that went to Calgary for Masters. However, from the information on the website it looks good. I would consider applying to the program. The student work looks solid as well, sapl.ucalgary.ca/future-students/top-reasons-study-sapl/student-work . I hope this helps 😊
Hi Mallika! I would definitely recommend UBC above all Canadian Universities. I would also recommend you to look into the programs and see what you like about them. Since it also depends on what you want from your education. I hope this helps 😊
Your doing great job and it's lot more beneficial for international students those who are planning to study masters in canada But i have few suggestions for you to add more information regarding selecting criteria like band score or CGPA percentage , also you can add much more good universities that provided masters courses related to architecture . Finally , thank you for making this kind of video and l am looking forward to you will definitely make one video related this topics .
Hi Architect Chirag! Appreciate the feedback, thank you 😊 I'm planning to do another video with more architecture schools so stay tune. I will also consider adding more info.
I’m looking at the UBC undergrad program, and I’m just concerned about the fact that it’s a BDes degree, not BA or BSC. I was thinking of going abroad for my masters, but they only talk about the arts and/or sciences grades. Is it possible that it’s unique and that’s why it’s not listed, but still accepted, or would the admissions team discard the application right away?
Hi Roniel! From what I know you have UBC and perhaps BCIT (I would double check if its a degree which can then be used to get a masters). Here's a link to BCIT program: www.bcit.ca/programs/architectural-science-bachelor-of-architectural-science-full-time-8050btech/ and UBC sala.ubc.ca/academics/undergraduate-degrees/bachelor-design .
@@architecture_tv in their website, it says that it allows students to "Pursue further education toward professional designation." Does that mean it can be used for masters? Sorry for my many questions, its just so different from where I'm from😅
Hello Asley, I'm a grade 12 student and now I receive offer for architecture from ubc and ut. Whichq university do you suggest me to go because I am not sure if I want to do architecture design in the future, because it's really hard. I hope I can have more opportunity to choose my future professions related to architecture. I also plan to take a master degree before going to work. So can you give me some suggestions about which university I should go for a bachelor degree?
Hi Tarun, I don't have any direct experience with the University of Calgary but the program seems interesting. The school really depends on what factors are important to you, I'd recommend watching this video for more insight on the factors to consider; ua-cam.com/video/gv-FK3AueiY/v-deo.html . In terms of Carleton, I went to Carleton briefly and it wasn't a good fit for me because the program didn't have the balance I was seeking. The program fell short on the technical and practical skills which was important to me and would ultimately help me to get employed upon graduating. It was heavy on the theoretical and conceptual side. I personally found UBC to be a nice balance between theory and the technical/practical side. However, this is personal and ultimately you should see what works best for you. I hope this helps 😊
Hi, thanks for your informative video I got a question, 15,000 for waterloo is for per year? It means it cost much much less than ubc and uoft, yes? Also I would really love to know about other universities like university of Calgary
Hi Bilal, Yes as long as the program doesn't require an undergrad in architecture. The following blog is a list of programs; www.ashleyeusebio.com/blog/master-of-architecture-programs-without-a-bachelor-of-architecture . I hope this helps.
Hey! So you did not include any programs related to planning in these universities like Masters of community or regional planning in UBC and MUP in Waterloo so being a B.Arch from India, Is the planning field and the programs like MUP/Community and regional planning/Town Planning not related to Architecture? Personally being more inclined towards this field so that's why I asked this and what is the Scope of this field? Thank you so Much!! :)
Hi Maneet! Great question. I included the programs which are stated under the Architecture department for each University. See the following link for the architecture department programs at UBC: sala.ubc.ca/academics AND for waterloo: uwaterloo.ca/architecture/academic-programs . You are correct its still related to the field of architecture. For more information I would check out UBC SCARP website: scarp.ubc.ca/school and waterloo planning department website: uwaterloo.ca/planning/ .

Hello, I'm aiming to become an architect and I'm conducting research on my future university. I went through a lot of universities and when I came across the UBC the undergraduate programme really confused me because it said 'Bachelor of Design in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Urbanism' and not 'Bachelor of Architecture'. I'm wondering whether I could get my architect's license with the UBC's undergraduate programme, or do I have to further study for a Master's degree on top of the undergraduate programme in order to get my license?
Hi Yalalt, the undergraduate degrees offered today in Canada all require a masters degree upon completing your Bachelors since the programs are not accredited. Upon completing your Bachelors you'd need to complete a professional (accredited) masters degree in architecture to become a licensed architect. After your masters you can become an Intern Architect and so on. The following is a list of the accredited programs in Canada; cacb.ca/accredited-programs/ . I also talk more about why you need a masters in the following video; ua-cam.com/video/GcFIyOCI9xo/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/cXHMoUGJMqk/v-deo.html . I'm also planning to do a video on undergraduate programs since I'm getting a lot of questions on this topic. I hope this helps 😊
Hello! Can you make a video on what skills we need to get into these colleges for master's in Architecture? For example I only know SketchUp, Lumion 8, AutoCAD, photoshop, a little illustrator. What else do I need? And how do I get a scholarship? A video on this will be very helpful!
Hi Mohona! Thank you for the feedback! Your software knowledge is enough to get into a program and once you are in the program you will learn more. I would also learn Rhino however its not required, I learned Rhino once I was enrolled into the program. It's more about what you do with the programs, you're critical thinking skills. The programs are tools to express your ideas. If you're curious about the programs I use checkout this video: ua-cam.com/video/_GjNu8dJBao/v-deo.html In terms of scholarships, it depends on the scholarship. Some scholarships are granted upon acceptance into the program (entrance scholarships) and others you have to apply. Entrance scholarships are typically based on academic performance. I'll be doing a video on how to fund architecture school and where to find scholarships which might give you some ideas so stay tune.

Great video like always ashley, thank you so much. I am in the dilemma of choosing between studying phd in architecture and doing internship in an architecture company when i immigrate to canada . Which one do you recommend in case of working as an architect in canada?
Hi Elham! You're welcome 😊 If your goal in the end is to become an Architect and to practice in the field, the experience is more valuable and you could start your licensure journey by collecting your experience. The PhD wouldn't be useful for future employment in the field however if you are thinking about going into academia then a PhD would be helpful. I also wanted to do a PhD however since I want to practice its not useful or practical, I wouldn't gain anything from the PhD unless I plan to go into teaching or writing. If you're still conflicted I would start with the internship which involves less of a commitment and if you don't enjoy the internship then you could always go and do your PhD.
Hi Zoya! I'm with you, I personally don't understand why its more expensive. I have some ideas about how you could fund your education in this video; ua-cam.com/video/X2YDZi7IcqY/v-deo.html And I would also recommend looking into scholarships, there's a few for international student scholarships. I have a video which might help: ua-cam.com/video/zMlo92t4xCg/v-deo.html . I also have a blog on scholarships; www.ashleyeusebio.com/blog/how-to-find-canadian-scholarships . I hope this helps.

Hi Rifat! Thank you for the introduction and feedback. I'll be doing a future video of the accredited master in architecture programs so it would cover Ryerson, UBC, and University of Calgary.
Hey Ashley, this is Anupika from Bangladesh...thanks for the insight..so i m planning to do my masters in waterloo.. but got some confusion regarding the cost... u said 15,449 dollar? as in US or CAD ? and I saw the website, there is written $11,364 per term, so your amount is per term or per year? and if it is term, then how may terms there will be in 2years?
I'm a bit unclear about the M.Arch at UBC..I'm 15 now but I'm already thinking about my degree thing hehe..so the thing is..surely I don't have any degree and can I apply for M.Arch without any degrees or do I need a undergraduate degree? But I also don't know what exactly undergraduate degree means so can you explain me that too??Or should I apply for Bachelor of Arch???If then will I need to take masters degree again afterwards??I'm an international so I 'd definitely have to look out for costs too....help me choose the better program pleaseeeeeee....the program that would make me a graduate and help me find a decent job
Hi Eindra! Its great your thinking about your masters degree already. You need an bachelors degree/ undergrad to apply for a masters. Typically an undergrad is a 4 year program (at least in Canada and the US). Most undergraduate degrees in Canada and the US within Architecture are not accredited (professional) programs so if your thinking about becoming a licensed Architect you'd need a professional masters degree that is accredited since your undergrad is not accredited. However, in some countries the bachelor in architecture is a longer degree (at least 5 years) and is considered a professional accredited degree (make sure to check if the program is accredited if your thinking about getting licensed). I have a video on this which might help you understand further; ua-cam.com/video/cXHMoUGJMqk/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/GcFIyOCI9xo/v-deo.html . To keep your options open in the future I would recommend making sure the program is accredited. If you'd like to know what are the accredited programs in Canada here is a video; ua-cam.com/video/6pw2PjCV8kk/v-deo.html . And the following is a video about the process of becoming an Architect; ua-cam.com/video/U7lMs-9EzVQ/v-deo.html and if your thinking about getting an international degree the following is a video on the process of becoming an Architect in Canada with an international degree or license; ua-cam.com/video/WfQ0Vx7Uol0/v-deo.html . I hope this helps 😊
Hi, I'm from Bangladesh and want to pursue my undergraduate in architecture from UBC, is there any chance I can get any scholarships as my academic results are outstanding?
Hi Anonymous! UBC is a great option, I really enjoyed my time at UBC for my masters. You have many options for scholarships with good academic standing. Also, that will increase your chances of getting entrance scholarships. I'm currently working on a video which I will post soon on scholarships which will provide you a list of scholarships and places to look for Canadian and international scholarships. I'm editing the video as we speak so stay tune.
Hi Chinedu, I'm planning a video on PhD programs however from the universities listed in the video only University of Toronto offers a PhD program. And UBC offers a post professional degree that is research base but is not a PhD program.
Hi Roniel! I know but the good thing is there are scholarships available. I have a blog post with information that might help: www.ashleyeusebio.com/blog/how-to-find-canadian-scholarships
Great video like always ashley, thank you so much. I am in the dilemma of choosing between studying phd in architecture and doing internship in an architecture company when i immigrate to canada . Which one do you recommend in case of working as an architect in canada?
Hi Everyone! If you'd like to work with me 1 on 1, you can now apply to my coaching program www.ashleyeusebio.com/work-with-me. Also, please note that the tuition costs noted in the video only include the program tuition fees and don't include the incidental fees or any additional University fees or program specific fees which are all non-tuition fees. I recommend checking out the websites for each program to review the full program costs. I also wanted to add that the Master of Architecture at UBC has a co-op program sala.ubc.ca/academics/enriched-educational-experiences/co-op AND McGill University also offers a PhD in Architecture, www.mcgill.ca/architecture/.
The following are the video chapters:

I'm glad you tackle the U of T Ashley, it's one of my picks. Do you also have thoughts about Ryerson University? (if you're familiar) thank you!
I'm from India can you help me out with how the Co op system would work and in total which is 2 years college then 2 years university which is co op how much would it cost? I'm a bit confused pls help out cause I wanna do architecture in canada and I can't figure out how much does it cost for a doing co op in architecture!!
@@keven11tween96 hi, I understood what you mean because I came in that situation too. In terms of "the architecture" that you wanted to do, does that mean you wanted to be licensed? Or just be working under architecture firm. There are lots of pathways, depending on your goal of course, in which Ashley's video would be helpful for you - that you can watch.
Hi @@charleneestabaya 😊You're welcome. UofT is a good option. I did my undergrad at Ryerson, it was ok. The program at Ryerson is very technically focused. Whereas the programs at UBC and UofT are more diverse and balanced (between design, and technical skills). I'll be doing a future video talking about all the master of architecture programs that are accredited so stay tune.
@@keven11tween96 the programs that come to mind with co-op programs include UBC and Waterloo. I would recommend checking out each university since the co-op programs can vary from school to school. For waterloo the co-op program has an additional cost. Check their website here for details: uwaterloo.ca/architecture/academic-programs/co-op and uwaterloo.ca/co-operative-education/your-co-op-fee . They break down the costs and the structure of the program. I would also get in contact with each program with your questions, they will be best to advise you on the co-op program.
As a former UBC student I have to say that the metrics for these rankings don’t always mean the program at that specific university is great. I remember looking at one of the metrics for one of these rankings and the size of the university, the library, even the number of hand sanitizers used or the number of cafes or accommodation raises the university ranking. Just don’t make a decision bases on university rankings.
Hi Shahin, this is a good point and your right it doesn't mean the program is great. I find the metrics help in providing some direction however finding the right fit does vary so much from individual to individual. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for making this comprehensive video! I'm planning on undertaking MArch in a couple of years - so your video is extremely helpful in my decision making process 👍
You're welcome Nicollo Abe! Happy to help 😊 Since you're looking into MArch programs I would also recommend watching this video on the 12 accredited Master of Architecture Programs; ua-cam.com/video/6pw2PjCV8kk/v-deo.html . It's a guide to the 12 professional programs.

Hi Ashley, great video! Would you consider making a video regarding portfolio tips for students looking to apply to masters in architecture? I have no background in architecture and would definitely benefit from a video like that! Thanks
Hi Lucia! Definitely, I'm planning a future video with portfolio tips. I will also share my portfolio I used for my masters application. I appreciate the feedback 😊
You forgot to mentioned waterloo has a studio in Rome, Italy and all 3rd year students spend a semester studying there. The co-op is also a 2 year paid co-op which is specific only to waterloo's faculty of engineering programs :)
Hi Kirasgirl! Thank you for the feedback 😊 I didn't get into those details in this video but I'm thinking these details would be good to mention in a separate video. I'll add that on my list of future videos. I know UBC also has an abroad studio program and I believe UofT does as well. Thanks for letting me know about the Italy studio. I'll look into it further for another video.
Hey there just to clarify the above information is not correct. The rome studio is offered in the 4th year of study. Each student will study in the Rome studio for the first semester of the 4th year. The coop is not exactly 2 years. Rather you are give 6 coop opportunities whereby you have to find your own job. In order to graduate you must fulfill 5/6 coop slots. Coop is mandatory for graduation. I will also add the space for students is actually much larger than UofT. Each UG student gets his/her own assigned desk in the studio which is quite large. Uoft students dont have the same luxury as we are all crammed in studio desk rows with no separation (this is at the graduate level). The UG students at Uoft do not get assigned seating and thus have to fight for limited space.
I've watched the video multiple times - once before I applied M.Arch, and once I got admitted by the schools.
Thanks Ashley for providing the info and doing all the research. I think you emphasize too much on the physical facilities and buildings instead of the quality of education, courses, as well as staff resources.
UofT for sure has the newest fancy building, and Waterloo is an older retrofit. From what I heard, Waterloo students actually have much more spacious desk and studio, and in a better acoustic environment. While UofT students are cramped in the shiny open space.
Also UofT's B.A Architecture degree is no way in the top 3 or 5 before McGill, Ryerson, or Carleton. I'd suggest you make a separate video of "Top 3 B.Arch / M.Arch in Canada".
Hi Simon, thanks for the feedback. You bring up some good points which I will look into. I did my undergrad at Ryerson and also attended Carleton for architecture (where I ended up switching programs) and I would not recommend the programs. From the program itself, to the building/ studio space, faculty, and the resources. Also, I think this depends on the individual and what you want to get out of your education along with what factors are most important to you. It is a bit of an individual by individual case however overall the schools do have global rankings which I took into consideration along with my experience of the programs.
Woo waterloo, my mom got her masters in 2019. I was looking at UofT and McGill for myself, but I still need to get my bachelors
This video helps me A LOTT!!, I thank you sooooo much!!
This channel is amazing 😊
Very Informative 💯
I wish the best for this

Thank you Bineth! Appreciate the kind words, I try to provide as much information as possible 😊
Very concise video Ashley! I've just dropped out of UofT's undergrad in BA Architecture for a few reasons. I can't entirely speak on the facilities because due to Covid I wasn't able to use any, but the program itself felt very unorganized and leaning towards a stark arts degree. I would have to entirely disagree with the general ranking, after completing my first year I realized that many of my peers were more interested in art history and theory as well as the program seemingly not preparing students for professional work. Though all of this can be taken with a grain of salt because it was only my first year and it was also during covid, however, I did have a TA who had an undergrad from UBC in structural eng, who was now in the M.Arch program at UofT who found the undergrad program at UofT to be "pointless".
Hi Keith! Thank you for sharing your undergrad experience, this also gives me more insight. I think the masters or PhD programs might be a bit better then the undergrad program since it’s more focused. However, I have met a few people that finished the undergrad program at UofT and were able to find work. I feel like this really depends on the person as well and how you fit within the program. Maybe UBC would be a better fit for you or perhaps Waterloo which is more technical. Something to think about.
I would 100% agree with what you said. I graduated a year and half ago from Ryerson and their program is so much better than UofT's. UofT is very theory based while Ryerson is science based and you learn a lot of crucial things like structure, HVAC, sound, thermal performance and much more. It is brutal though. I was thinking of going to UofT for my master to take it a bit more easy and I'm a bit scared of Ryerson.
hello, could you provide more insight about why the UofT BA Arch program didn't suit you as well? I am currently applying to both UBC and UofT but I have seen a lot of comments about how the UofT program isn't as good and it has definitely made me very worried about applying to UofT 🥲
@@junhengtan8934 pls update when results r out
@@junhengtan8934 Its more theory and arts based and almost zero science based. Ryerson's Architecture program (Architectural science) is heavily based on structure and math. Which I know UofT provides none of I think UBS provides a better opportunity to learn these skills as its something you need to know to even get a job in the field (You do the jobs others don't want to do, meaning you will never design an actual building but rather do schedules, calculations and make sure everything meets code.) I also know UofT doesn't offer project management and building science courses, Ryerson does. Most firms hire people who have knowledge in these subjects because every project has jobs that need to be done relating to schedules and its not really fun and its very repetitive. To say in shorter terms. UofT will not get you into any Architecture Masters program unless you have these superb references and portfolio that surpasses anything they teach in their undergrad program. Very few jobs are out there for people who graduate from UofT's Architecture program (In architecture itself)
Hi Ashley, I’m from Perú in South America and I’m studying a BA architecture but i want to continue my studies in Canada, what would you recommend me??
Hi Sebastian! If your planning to continue on the journey of becoming a licensed architect in Canada, I would recommend the following video for more insight; ua-cam.com/video/WfQ0Vx7Uol0/v-deo.html and the CACB website; cacb.ca/academic-certification/ . If your planning to focus on working in the industry within Canada but without a licence, I would recommend the following videos for more insight: ua-cam.com/video/ULowG6EfVxo/v-deo.html , ua-cam.com/video/IfXnNkELFOE/v-deo.html , and ua-cam.com/video/qH7pdTURfl4/v-deo.html . And if working in the industry is the main focus learning and having skills in Revit is important. Also, you could always start working in the industry and then decide if you want to get your licence. I hope this helps.
Nice video! For just a little correction, international tuition fee of M. Arch at Waterloo is about 23k per year.
Hi Ogulnabat! Thank you for the feedback. The numbers in the video only include tuition fees, I believe the 23k includes incidental fees which are non-tuition fees? I'll make sure to make that clear in the next and add a note to the video.
@@architecture_tv Hi! For architecture, the tuition fees are indicated separately on on-campus professional programs section, a little below the website. It was around 11k per semester without the incidentals. I was also dissapointed as I was accepting my offer. Great content btw. Cheers!
@@ogulnabatjumayeva7109 Thank you for this! Appreciate the feedback. Thats correct, I noticed that as well but to simplify things in the video I only included tuition fees and the university fee but didn't include the program incidental fees that were program specific in the chart you mentioned. I know the costs are disappointing, it's a lot to take in. I would look into scholarships and other ways of funding the degree. Try your best to limit the debt, you'll see the benefits in the long run. I've added a note to the video so that it's a bit more clear that there are additional costs to the tuition fees noted in the video. Nevertheless, congratulations on the acceptance offer!! 🎉The program is good and they also offer co-op which also has an additional cost but that will help to make a bit more money on the side. I recently posted a video with some ideas to help fund your degree which might help: ua-cam.com/video/X2YDZi7IcqY/v-deo.html . I'll be doing a video later this month about scholarships and how to find them which might also help you so stay tune. Keep me posted on your journey 😊

We've seen many students with M.Arch from UofT couldn't find jobs...
Hi Simon! Good to see you again, this can be said about many other programs. I know many M.Arch students from UofT that find jobs right after graduating while others take more time.
Hello, thank you for this informations. What makes the cost of tuition for international students higher than domestic students?
You're welcome! I don't know why the price difference is so much. Perhaps try getting in touch with the university maybe they can provide more information.

Hi Ashley, My grade 12 son needs to make a choice between UoT and Waterloo. We are leaning towards UoT because of the location and over-all expenses. What’s the likelihood for UoT graduates to land a job after finishing the Master’s program as compared to Waterloo that has a Coop program?
As a current UofT student, I just finished my 3rd year at UofT BA Arch, I would say the BA was not amazing the first two years but it was an okay introduction to architecture. However, after 2nd year you are able to apply for a specialist in design. The design specialist studios are very well and I believe 3rd year at UofT is very good if you can make it into the specialist stream. They also offer design build studios and internship opportunities in the summer. Many of the people in the Design Specialist stream were able to go to great grad schools such as Harvard, Columbia, MIT, etc.

Is UBC the only university that offers undergrad program in architecture within BC?. I have 80%+ average and it’s impossible to get in With these marks
Hi Mr.NoOne, an 80%+ average should meet the requirements for admission into UBC undergrad program. BCIT which is also in Vancouver offers bachelor in architectural science, www.bcit.ca/programs/architectural-science-bachelor-of-architectural-science-full-time-8050btech/ . It's important to note that meeting the academic requirements doesn't guarantee admission. So, it's important to build a solid portfolio.

Hi YJ! I don't have any personal experience and I don't know anyone that went to Calgary for Masters. However, from the information on the website it looks good.

Nice video, what do u think about UCalgary and Carleton University. Are they worth it, please reply 🙃
Hi Tarun, I don't have any direct experience with the University of Calgary but the program seems interesting. The school really depends on what factors are important to you, I'd recommend watching this video for more insight on the factors to consider; ua-cam.com/video/gv-FK3AueiY/v-deo.html . In terms of Carleton, I went to Carleton briefly and it wasn't a good fit for me because the program didn't have the balance I was seeking. The program fell short on the technical and practical skills which was important to me and would ultimately help me to get employed upon graduating. It was heavy on the theoretical and conceptual side. I personally found UBC to be a nice balance between theory and the technical/practical side. However, this is personal and ultimately you should see what works best for you. I hope this helps 😊

Hey! So you did not include any programs related to planning in these universities like Masters of community or regional planning in UBC and MUP in Waterloo so being a B.Arch from India, Is the planning field and the programs like MUP/Community and regional planning/Town Planning not related to Architecture?

Hello, I'm aiming to become an architect and I'm conducting research on my future university. I went through a lot of universities and when I came across the UBC the undergraduate programme really confused me because it said 'Bachelor of Design in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Urbanism' and not 'Bachelor of Architecture'.
I'm wondering whether I could get my architect's license with the UBC's undergraduate programme, or do I have to further study for a Master's degree on top of the undergraduate programme in order to get my license?
Hi Yalalt, the undergraduate degrees offered today in Canada all require a masters degree upon completing your Bachelors since the programs are not accredited. Upon completing your Bachelors you'd need to complete a professional (accredited) masters degree in architecture to become a licensed architect. After your masters you can become an Intern Architect and so on. The following is a list of the accredited programs in Canada; cacb.ca/accredited-programs/ . I also talk more about why you need a masters in the following video; ua-cam.com/video/GcFIyOCI9xo/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/cXHMoUGJMqk/v-deo.html . I'm also planning to do a video on undergraduate programs since I'm getting a lot of questions on this topic. I hope this helps 😊
Hello! Can you make a video on what skills we need to get into these colleges for master's in Architecture? For example I only know SketchUp, Lumion 8, AutoCAD, photoshop, a little illustrator. What else do I need? And how do I get a scholarship?
A video on this will be very helpful!
Hi Mohona! Thank you for the feedback! Your software knowledge is enough to get into a program and once you are in the program you will learn more. I would also learn Rhino however its not required, I learned Rhino once I was enrolled into the program. It's more about what you do with the programs, you're critical thinking skills. The programs are tools to express your ideas. If you're curious about the programs I use checkout this video: ua-cam.com/video/_GjNu8dJBao/v-deo.html
In terms of scholarships, it depends on the scholarship. Some scholarships are granted upon acceptance into the program (entrance scholarships) and others you have to apply. Entrance scholarships are typically based on academic performance. I'll be doing a video on how to fund architecture school and where to find scholarships which might give you some ideas so stay tune.
Very useful videos. Thanks
Thank you Sajj!
I'd like to ask do any of this schools have a Masters in Construction management program if not what are the best schools to apply. Im a grad student from nigeria with a Bsc and M.Arch looking to get a degree in construction management
Hi Noh-va, from my knowledge there aren't any universities that offer a masters in construction management in the architecture department unless you look into civil engineering, programs such as Concordia (www.concordia.ca/academics/graduate/construction-engineering.html) or at UBC (civil.ubc.ca/research/research-areas/project-construction-management/). I would also look into colleges, the following is a link with a list of programs; www.idp.com/middleeast/search/construction-management/postgraduate/canada/?q=:popularity:studySector:Postgraduate:destination:Canada&page=0 . I hope this helps.
Great Video!
Thanks Rebekka n.! Appreciate the feedback 😊
Great video like always ashley, thank you so much. I am in the dilemma of choosing between studying phd in architecture and doing internship in an architecture company when i immigrate to canada . Which one do you recommend in case of working as an architect in canada?
Hi Elham! You're welcome 😊 If your goal in the end is to become an Architect and to practice in the field, the experience is more valuable and you could start your licensure journey by collecting your experience. The PhD wouldn't be useful for future employment in the field however if you are thinking about going into academia then a PhD would be helpful. I also wanted to do a PhD however since I want to practice its not useful or practical, I wouldn't gain anything from the PhD unless I plan to go into teaching or writing. If you're still conflicted I would start with the internship which involves less of a commitment and if you don't enjoy the internship then you could always go and do your PhD.
I find it so disheartening when the fees for international students is 5 times the amount domestic students pay. How does one even afford that :/
Hi Zoya! I'm with you, I personally don't understand why its more expensive. I have some ideas about how you could fund your education in this video; ua-cam.com/video/X2YDZi7IcqY/v-deo.html
And I would also recommend looking into scholarships, there's a few for international student scholarships. I have a video which might help: ua-cam.com/video/zMlo92t4xCg/v-deo.html . I also have a blog on scholarships; www.ashleyeusebio.com/blog/how-to-find-canadian-scholarships . I hope this helps.
Hi,
Do you need to be able to read fast to be an architect?
Hi Chaim, no its not a requirement. Its more about your creativity.
I did my diploma In architecture from Bangladesh. Can I be admitted?
Hi Zahid, I recommend looking into the program admission requirements. I’ve included links to the programs in the description box above.
@@architecture_tv Please give me your Facebook account links.I will contact you.......

Hey Ashley, this is Anupika from Bangladesh...thanks for the insight..so i m planning to do my masters in waterloo.. but got some confusion regarding the cost... u said 15,449 dollar? as in US or CAD ? and I saw the website, there is written $11,364 per term, so your amount is per term or per year? and if it is term, then how may terms there will be in 2years?
I'm a bit unclear about the M.Arch at UBC..I'm 15 now but I'm already thinking about my degree thing hehe..so the thing is..surely I don't have any degree and can I apply for M.Arch without any degrees or do I need a undergraduate degree? But I also don't know what exactly undergraduate degree means so can you explain me that too??Or should I apply for Bachelor of Arch???If then will I need to take masters degree again afterwards??I'm an international so I 'd definitely have to look out for costs too....help me choose the better program pleaseeeeeee....the program that would make me a graduate and help me find a decent job
Hi Eindra! Its great your thinking about your masters degree already. You need an bachelors degree/ undergrad to apply for a masters. Typically an undergrad is a 4 year program (at least in Canada and the US). Most undergraduate degrees in Canada and the US within Architecture are not accredited (professional) programs so if your thinking about becoming a licensed Architect you'd need a professional masters degree that is accredited since your undergrad is not accredited. However, in some countries the bachelor in architecture is a longer degree (at least 5 years) and is considered a professional accredited degree (make sure to check if the program is accredited if your thinking about getting licensed). I have a video on this which might help you understand further; ua-cam.com/video/cXHMoUGJMqk/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/GcFIyOCI9xo/v-deo.html . To keep your options open in the future I would recommend making sure the program is accredited. If you'd like to know what are the accredited programs in Canada here is a video; ua-cam.com/video/6pw2PjCV8kk/v-deo.html . And the following is a video about the process of becoming an Architect; ua-cam.com/video/U7lMs-9EzVQ/v-deo.html and if your thinking about getting an international degree the following is a video on the process of becoming an Architect in Canada with an international degree or license; ua-cam.com/video/WfQ0Vx7Uol0/v-deo.html . I hope this helps 😊

Hi, I'm from Bangladesh and want to pursue my undergraduate in architecture from UBC, is there any chance I can get any scholarships as my academic results are outstanding?
Hi Anonymous! UBC is a great option, I really enjoyed my time at UBC for my masters. You have many options for scholarships with good academic standing. Also, that will increase your chances of getting entrance scholarships. I'm currently working on a video which I will post soon on scholarships which will provide you a list of scholarships and places to look for Canadian and international scholarships. I'm editing the video as we speak so stay tune.
@@architecture_tv Thank you, waiting for the video!
Any one can you share fees structure for B architecture in Canada..
Hi Syed! Not sure if you're referring to the program fees?
Don't they offer PhD in architure?
Hi Chinedu, I'm planning a video on PhD programs however from the universities listed in the video only University of Toronto offers a PhD program. And UBC offers a post professional degree that is research base but is not a PhD program.
hi do they offer online?
Hi Ray, I don't think so but I would double check through the program websites for more information.
It's so expensive 😭
Hi Roniel! I know but the good thing is there are scholarships available. I have a blog post with information that might help: www.ashleyeusebio.com/blog/how-to-find-canadian-scholarships
