Architects need their Masters to actually be able to practice in a firm, so I'll be getting my Masters.Out of curiosity, for those of you currently enrolled in undergraduate programs (or those planning to apply), what are your plans after getting your undergraduate degree? (Graduate work, working, travelling?)

I'm not exactly sure why you must have a masters to practice, to be honest. However, I suppose I should clarify a bit. If you study Architecture but don't get your masters you can still work in a firm and make decent money. However, to actually be an ARCHITECT (which is what I want to be), you must be certified, which is in essence a masters degree (6 year program with the same credentials as a masters degree).This seems frankly bizarre to me; if it's not just artificially lengthening the amount of time you need to study and/or artificially restricting the entry into the field to maintain low supply of services, why not just make a Bachelors in Architecture capable of giving you the same qualification by increasing the rigour of the course?
i wouldn't believe the most of them. either way, some will drop out because of "the pressure." lol.
Yale University to do mathy stuff.
Interesting, U of C is just as good as Princeton (or almost as good). It's not that far off...Funny story, my buddy who's going to U of C has a brother who is going to Princeton and we always give him shit for not living up to the expectations of his family

I'll be going to the United States Naval Academy this summer and will be there for the next four years; after that, I'll serve as an officer in either the Navy or Marines.
I leave for Maryland in 37 days and will spend the summer doing basic training (plebe summer) before starting the academic year.
I'm planning on majoring in mechanical engineering but may end up going aeronautical or systems engineering. Not quite sure.
I have a full ride there (it's not really a scholarship as if you are accepted to the school it's automatically paid for by the government, all 350k of it).
Carnegie Mellon University class of 2012 (if anyone cares to know this crap place <.< )
Electrical and Computer Engineering major.
it's the only credible law school in Chicago and surrounding region.
Carnegie Mellon graduates are the highest earning employees in the nation.
That's right, a Carnegie Mellon diploma gets you farther than one from Harvard.
