I had an excellent experience with AP. I contacted Sebastian to register for this program very late into my M.Arch application portfolio journey. He speedily matched me with my tutor, Rory, who I spend four months working with. At the time, I had no completed design work, and really lacked the confidence to begin designing. Rory patiently nudged me out of abstraction and into making. Him and Sebastian provided continued guidance and held me accountable throughout my time at AP. They also helped me to navigate the M.Arch application environment. I am very happy to announce that I received admissions to all the M.Arch programs I applied to, without an architectural background. I couldn't be more grateful to AP- this program is invaluable. I highly recommend it to anyone who is seriously considering pivoting into architecture and to those continuing with their architecture journeys. Many thanks to Rory and Sebastian!
We are so glad to have found Sebastian and his team at Architectureprep to guide our child's journey into architecture . Sebastian, with his great insights and advise has been incredibly helpful at every stage of the application process including , university selection , portfolio prep , essays , interview prep and offer selection. Charlotte (ArchitecturePrep Advisor mentoring our child) was very helpful during the application process with her weekly one on one sessions and would go out of her way to ensure the portfolio and essays were done right.Would highly recommend Sebastian and team !!
Very effective coaching, support, and strategic advice! Our daughter has always been a successful STEM student, and made that (and competitive athletics) her primary focus through high school (we are in the US). Art was what she did in her "free time" to relax and unwind. Although she had a little formal training, she had never prepared a portfolio, or worked consistently with a mentor to develop her talent, or her body of work.When she decided late in her junior year to apply to undergraduate architecture programs, we discovered we had to act quickly on an application portfolio.Sebastian and Paul talked her (and us) through the process, came up with a 3-month plan for her, guided her through the development of a compelling portfolio, and helped her present her work (and passion for architecture) in applications and interviews.Our daughter was just admitted to her "dream" program.Thank you, Paul and Sebastian!
Architecture Prep was a crucial tool in our daughter's arsenal when applying to architecture school. As a family with no experience in creating portfolios, we very much relied on their invaluable advice - and they were obviously right on target.Our daughter likely wouldn't have received the offers from top UK schools without the truly top-notch team of Sebastian and Charlotte.Charlotte's portfolio project suggestions andspecific edits to the portfolio itself took our daughter's portfolio from good to great. Charlotte helped create a consistent theme that was authentic and meaningful to our daughter, and which tied back to the personal statement and, ultimately, linked through to the interview conversation. Sebastian took quite a lot of time to explain the drawing exam process (and the interview structure) in great detail. Catherine was much better prepared for both the exam and the interview after receiving his advice, and was therefore not flustered when the exam & the interview weren't exactly as she had initially anticipated them.There's no doubt that Architecture Prep elevated our daughter's portfolio and her performance on both the university entrance exam and the interview.Thank you, Charlotte and Sebastian!
Sebastian is an encouraging consultant and a deep listener. Within a few minutes of talking to him, I already felt he understood my goals and was supportive in encouraging me to reach them. Then Laura, the tutor, provided expert design advice, and helped me narrow from thousands of images down to only a few stand outs. SO helpful, and considerate, and effective. I gained, from working with them, a feeling of clarity about my academic and professional goals, and an understanding of the best ways to show my skills and vision to an audience. Thank you Architecture Prep.
I honestly can’t thank Architecture Prep enough for the support I received during my grad school applications. When I first started, I was full of doubt and had no idea if I even stood a chance. But the feedback I got — especially on my portfolio and statement of purpose — was incredibly thoughtful and really helped me see my work in a new light.What stood out the most was how personal and encouraging the whole process felt. It wasn’t just about fixing things — it was about understanding my story and helping me tell it better.Thanks to that guidance, I got accepted into UC Berkeley, and I also received offers from MIT, Columbia, WashU, and UCLA. I still can’t believe it.If you’re applying to architecture school and feeling unsure of where to start, this is the kind of support that can truly make all the difference.
Samantha was a wonderful help. Would 1000% invest in this prep course. I only needed help with my essay and had quite a short amount of time to do so. Sebastian connected me with the right tutor. I was accepted into Columbia, Berkeley, AA… still have more to hear from in the coming weeks.
I am going to Rice to study architecture and I am grateful for Architecture Prep as their support in helping me achieve this goal was invaluable. Initially uncertain about portfolio preparation and my architectural aspirations, I found clarity and direction through their mentorship. My meetings with James not only provided insight into the portfolio aspect of applying to schools but also the world of art and architecture.
Sebastian worked with my daughter during her university applications and portfolio preparation. I was super impressed how they were able to communicate effectively despite the time zone difference between London and Los Angeles. She particularly appreciated Sebastian's consultative approach to tutoring. She was admitted to 8 top architecture schools in USA. She chose to attend USC Architecture in her freshmen year and she loved it. When our business required us to spend more time in Europe, my daughter wanted to explore transfering to AA in London, it was one of her dream schools due to the type of design concentration and unit system AA offers. My daughter was happy to work with Sebastian once again and we are happy to report that she was accepted this year as a transfer student to AA! Thanks Sebastian!..
I am really glad that I met Sebastian and Rory. They were both extremely kind and very human, trying to know me better as a person over the 5 months.I was initially lost and unsure on how to approach my art portfolio, not knowing how to create "conceptual" and "spatial" pieces. Fortunately, since Rory was on a working trip, I was able to meet him in person to show him my work. Rory was able to analyze my pieces, giving strong feedback and suggestions that lit a fire inside of me to push my limits. He helped transform my portfolio from "okay" to a UCL Bartlett level portfolio, where I just got an offer from.Sebastian was more in charge of making final suggestions to my personal statement, portfolio, and interview skills. In reviewing my personal statement and interview skills, he made comments and asked questions that helped enhance my own voice, as he strived to bring out the best in me instead of creating some facade that would be fitting for a top school. All in all, Architecture Prep is one of the best decisions I made in my life and I could not recommend Sebastian and Rory enough to anyone who is looking to apply for a top architecture school!
