The Bachelor of Science in Architecture (B.S. Arch) offers a rigorous and distinguished architectural education profile for our students around technology in all areas – design, history, theory, and communication. Our undergraduate degree program offers flexibility in the design studio sequence to allow coordinated interdisciplinary work with other schools at Georgia Tech. We build our academic foundation on studio classes, history of theory and a deliberate blend of technology and design. We offer incubator workshops to all our students, from Freshmen through Seniors, which allow them to follow their intellectual passions and hone in-demand skills. The experimentation in our classes reflects the evolution happening now in professional Architecture.

The Bachelor of Science in Architecture program prepares students for graduate-level studies in architecture, for graduate study in related fields, or a variety of careers related to architecture, the building industry, or government service.

Requirements

  • The non-refundable freshman application fee is $75 (international applicants: $85). Students who pay an application fee but do not submit an application will not have their fee refunded.
  • Included with the Common Application and Georgia Tech Questions is one long essay and two short answer essays. The purpose of the essays is to assess your writing ability and, more importantly, to learn more about you as an individual. This portion of the application helps us get to know you, assess mutual fit and better understand what you could contribute to Georgia Tech.
  • TOEFL or IELTS scores
  • We will only accept one (1) recommendation from your counselor and one (1) from the teacher of your choice. Any additional recommendations will not be considered with your application.
  • Interview
  • The GPA we consider is the one taken directly from your high school transcript. We will use a 100 point GPA, if available, and weighted, if available. If not, we’re happy to consider a 4.0 GPA or similar and/or unweighted GPA.
  • If your high school does not provide a GPA or you have attended multiple high schools, we will recalculate a weighted 4.0 GPA (0.5 points added for AP, IB, Dual Enrollment & AICE courses) using core courses only.
  • To help us better understand your high school and its curriculum, your counselor will submit a School Report form and/or School Profile with your transcript.
  • The University System of Georgia requires minimum academic courses of all first time students, though most applicants exceed those in at least one area. USG requirements include:
    • English - 4 Units
    • Math - 4 Units
    • Science - 4 Units
