- Good Standing requires a grade of C-or better in each course of the
Architecture Core.
- Students in Architectural Studies are either in Good Standing or on
Academic Warning. Students who satisfy the conditions for Suspension
at an Academic Performance Evaluation must leave the Architectural Studies
program with the status Ineligible to Return (ITR).

Retention of Work
Keeping a good portfolio is a most important part of architectural education.
A portfolio represents a record of the student's progress and design experience
over the years, and is an indispensable requirement for any future job
application. A portfolio is started in first year and continues to expand
until graduation. The School, therefore, requires that each student produce
reductions (normally 8 1/2 x 11 inch reproductions, colour or black and
white, slides, and/or digital format CD) of his or her work at the end
of each term. One copy of the work should be put in the student's portfolio
and the other turned in to the instructor for retention in the School's
archives. (This facilitates retrospective exhibitions of work, accreditation,
publications and any future references for pedagogic purposes.) Original
work is the property of the students, but the School retains the right
to keep work of merit for up to two years after the date of submission.
The School will make every effort to preserve the work in good condition,
and will give authorship credit and take care of its proper use.
