Hi,
Each school is slightly different in their requirements, though most now require a "core" year or two where you take certain lower level courses before being fully admitted into the architecture program. Most schools also limit the number of people per year in the program. In order to be fully admitted into the architecture program you usually have to prepare a portfolio, an essay, and maybe a presentation which will be judged by a panel of the architecture professors. GPA from your "core" classes will usually be factored into your application score when compared against the other candidates, so the higher your GPA the better your chances of being invited into the program.
The first step though is researching which architecture program you wish to attend and checking the GPA requirements to be admitted to that university.
Hope this helps.
