“I have seen countless of my peer’s struggle, and it has inspired me to do my best. To see my hard work paying off is truly a blessing. I am nowhere near where I want to be in the future yet, receiving this award tells me that I am getting closer to my goal.”

 “Our classes are so interactive. We are always spending time together in the studio, and we collaborate on almost everything. We can go from Wellsville town planning and design all the way up to our thesis projects that combine a variety of topics.”

“I chose Alfred State after looking at a bunch of different architecture schools around the area and what really drew me here was their technical background and their value in the field. I talked to different architects and engineers and all of them said the same thing. Alfred graduates were ready to go when they get put into any project and everyone was satisfied with their work.”

John Snyder

“Projects like this give our students a real-world experience. In eight short weeks, each group worked together to develop plans from what they had learned and seen in Angelica. The students did an excellent job taking what they have learned in the classroom and applying it to a client.”

“I get excited seeing my friends. It is so comfortable being able to know that you always have people you know around campus. Alfred is a tight-knit community.” 

“The way they run this program is different. We are all together most of the time. You are with your peers, and you can learn and grow with them.”

Katie Petix

"The opportunity to lead my fellow students on an international trip was a priceless learning experience that broadened our architectural mindset and strengthened the architecture-student community at Alfred State."
