Academic
Performance Evaluation for Bachelor of Architectural Studies
- The Bachelor
of Architectural Studies program does not define a Major CGPA.
Students are assessed at each Academic Performance Evaluation using
their Overall CGPA and the Core minimum defined in 2 below.
- The Architecture
Core consists of the following courses: ARCS 1005, ARCS 1105 [1.0],
ARCS 2105 [1.5], ARCS 2106 [1.5], ARCS 3105 [1.5], ARCS 3106 [1.5],
ARCS 4105 [1.5], ARCS 4106 [1.5].
- 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).
- Students wishing
to continue into the professional M.Arch. degree program must have
successfully completed the B.A.S. degree program with an Overall
CGPA of 7.00 or better.

Design Studio course sequence
In the first, second, and third year of the program, studios must be taken
in sequence. In the fourth year, studios may be taken out of sequence, with
the permission of the CSPA.
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.
