I’m studying architecture at a Russell group uni, I’m on track for a 2.2. I got an ACD at A Level and I have 9 GCSES grade A-C.
Are my qualifications good enough to get onto a graduate programme?
Thanks
What sort of graduate programme?
Architecture placements will look at your portfolio as much as your academic record. Hasn’t your course started talking about finding a graduate placement? Have you talked to any firms?

Well, I’m trying to apply for any job that hires a 2:2 in an architecture degree. So just looking on gradchecker and everything else, no they haven’t not yet! Should I include my portfolio too?
Hey I ended up with a 2.2 aswell and I worked my ass off during this whole year. Just like you I don't know what went wrong but have you had any luck so far?
Not all people who study architecture become architects. If you are not going onto the masters in Architecture then you have a 2.2 from a top uni and can apply for any graduate programme. Look for graduate programmes in product design (even consider doing a masters in product design) since lots of companies need product designers. Look at the Ford grad scheme for designers.
