Why did you choose CAADatMSU?
I knew I wanted to go into architecture early in high school, and after touring multiple programs, MSU had the ideal studio environment I wanted to pursue. There are enough people to collaborate, but not so many that I feel like just a number to my professors. Overall, I feel I made the correct choice when choosing CAAD at MSU, as it seems to be the program that just “clicks” with me.
