Chris’s Answer

Your first step is to get a 5 year professional or masters degree if you want to be a licensed architect. After completing that you must complete your apprenticeship hours working under an architect. Generally this is a paid position but entry level. After completing the required hours you can begin taking your certification test required by your state. In most its 5 but some states require an additional seismic test.

Im not a architect but my wife is and owns her own practice. I believe I am giving you an accurate answer but I am basing this off the knowledge I have received from her.

Kimberly’s Answer

You are choosing a career that has success built on not just the mechanics of knowing the trade but also on relationships, hone this part of your skill set and never underestimate the power of being likeable and trustworthy. People choose to work with people they like, especially when it comes to areas that require more social interaction. Toastmasters is a great organization if you are more introverted to learn how to communicate and express yourself -- but it is also fantastic for extroverts to focus their delivery and appeal to everyone. Think about the teachers, coaches, professionals, other students etc that are more kind, listen, engage, make you feel comfortable and heard. Those are the people you want to see again and trust. This will be key to your success anywhere but also very much in your chosen field. And have a back up because this area is very crowded with applicants. Good Luck!
