Architectural Studies B.S.
Eight-Semester Degree Program
Students wishing to follow the eight-semester degree plan should see the Eight-Semester Degree Policy for university requirements of the program. During the first year, students who have been admitted to the fall-spring design studio and students who have been to the summer-summer design studio follow different schedules, both of which are listed below, with the fall-spring studio first and then the summer-summer studio. The second, third and fourth years are identical for both scenarios.
