Make sure the portfolio includes a variety of styles) and you mathematics. Architectural schools also tend to be fairly selective schools so make sure to keep up you GPA. You can also look into doing some summer work with an architectural firm and see if you can get some proficiency with AutoCAD and other drafting software (a practicing architect would probably be the best person to tell you what the professionals are using now-a-days). It never hurts to start looking into which schools you might like to attend and asking their admissions counselors what they look for in prospective students.
