|
Can enrolled architecture students between schools or on co-op work terms compete? |
|
|
As long as an undergraduate is currently enrolled as a full-time student during the period of the competitions--November 1, 2006 through May 23, 2007--(essay and travel) in an accredited department or school of architecture, then she/he may compete.
|
|
|
|
I was wondering if the semi finalists will be acknowledged on the site as well as the finalists? |
|
|
We do not publish the names of the Semifinalists; we do post to the site all of the winners and their essays. These will be available for you to read on the site in April 2007. The winners of last year's competition can be seen here: http://www.berkeleyprize.org/essay/essay.cfm?year=2006

|
While its not required to submit designs or drawings, is it actually possible to do so? Speaking on behalf of the essays that take the form of architectural (design) solutions. |
|
|
Unfortunately, we do not have in place a system for either accepting or reviewing any visual material that you may have produced to accompany your essay. We are hoping that you will effectively illustrate your proposal with prose. Best of luck!
|
|
|
|
Can we edit essays after december,10th and is it necessary to registrate somewhere else or just by having author portofolio? |
|
|
No, you can't edit your essay once it has been submitted. And having submitted your essay, you have officially entered the competition. No other registration is necessary

I am attending a 2 Year Community College to complete my Undergrad Studies. I currently work fulltime as an Architecture Draftsman / Intern, and I attend school fulltime pursueing my Associates Degree in Architecture before I transfer to a 4 year school. Our 2 Year School has an activie AIAS Chapter, of which I am the Chapter President. Other Chapter members have asked me if we are elgible to enter this competition due to our school program being a 2 year degree in Architecture? |
|
|
Your interest and involvements are admirable. However, the Berkeley Prize Endoment specifies only full time undergraduates pursuing either the BArch or Major in Architecture, in accredited schools of architecture may compete. Next year, then!

|
i am studying master of urban design in iran,am i eligible to participate in the competition? |
|
|
No, you are not eligible if you are a graduate student. The competitions are open only to undergraduates.
|
|
|
|
i'm a third year student from Australia graduating in B of Env Design (Part 1) end of this year. but i would continue the B of Arch next year (4th year), will i be still eligible to enter the contest? |
|
|
You may team up with a full time undergraduate student of architecture, but until you are a full time student of architecture, you are not eligible to compete on your own.
|
|
|
|
I direct the nonprofessional (full time, undergraduate) architecture program at a liberal arts college and I want to encourage my students to apply, though it's still unclear to me if they are eligible. They are full time, undergraduate, students enrolled in an official architecture major, which in our school happens to fall in the Art Department. Are they eligible? |
|
|
Yes, if their undergraduate degree is either the professional degree of Bachelor of Architecture or BA, with a Major in Architecture
|
|
|
|
I participated twice in this competition. Once as a member of the group and secend time as an individual, participant. Can I participate in this way for the secend time or not? |
|
|
You may enter the competition once each year, either as an individual, or as a team member, but not both ways in one year.
|
|
|
|
Will the bibliography submitted count towards the total word limit of the proposal essay? |
|
|
Yes. However, I would advise that you integrate your references into your text as authoritative "voices", as you might in an article for a serious, daily newspaper.
|
|
|
|
How does a European student, where we do not differentiate between undergraduate and graduate, know if he is eligible? Do you consider bachelors and masters in the same way? |
|
|
By Undergraduates we mean students who are pursing their first degree in architecture, which may be professional or non-professional.
|
|
|
|
It states on the eligibility page that an architecture student can pair up with a planning student for the writing of the essay. Do the students have to attend the same school? Or can they attend different schools which are both accredited? |
|
|
No, the students can attend different schools, as long as one is an architecture student at an accredited school, while the other can be in urban studies or the social sciences.
|
|
|
|
I'm a pre-architecture student within the History of Art and Architecture department at a college. Am I eligible? |
|
|
To be eligible one must be a full-time student enrolled in a department, school or college of architecture.
