I would recommend Adobe Illustrator for vector art or clean illustrations. Adobe Photoshop for that extra artistic touch or fine tuning. Then Adobe Indesign to put together the professional portfolio.
Seriously, if you are getting into an architecture/design program or any kind of art type program, you should have some awareness of the basic usage of those programs. You will of course, be using some kind of CAD for actual architectural design but you would use the others for any 2D illustration or presentation.
