Gerald D. Hines College of Architecture
Master of Architecture - Level III Entrance

Admission Requirements

In addition to the college's admission requirements, students must:

  1. Applicants must have earned a Bachelor of Architecture degree, or the equivalent, from an accredited school of architecture maintaining high academic standards.

  2. Applicants must submit official Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores.

  3. Applicants must have a minimum of 3.00 cumulative grade point average (A=4.00) during the last 60 semester hours of undergraduate studies.

  4. Applicants must submit an 81/2" x 11" (A4) portfolio of representative work for evaluation by the Graduate Admissions Committee. While the portfolio should demonstrate the candidate's ability in the field of architecture, it may also present evidence of accomplishments in related fields such as photography, painting, sculpture, and graphics. In addition to serving as one of the criteria for admissions, the portfolio is used in placing students in the design sequence. The portfolio should be securely bound and should be accompanied by a self-addressed, postage-paid envelope.
