Admissions Requirements
Applicants must meet the general requirements of the Graduate School.
A personal interview with the Director, Graduate Advisor or members of
the landscape architecture faculty is strongly recommended. Three
letters of recommendation are required, and it is suggested that at
least two of the letters come from former educators or academic contact.
Applicants also are required to submit scores from the Graduate Record
Exam (GRE). Average GRE scores of successful applicants since 1998 have
been approximately 550 Verbal and 550 Quantitative. Also required is a
grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 as calculated by the Graduate School.
Applicants holding first professional degrees in landscape
architecture, or in some cases degrees related to landscape architecture
(such as architecture, engineering, environmental design, horticulture,
interior design, planning, and the like) are required to submit
portfolios reflecting the applicants' professional and/or academic
experiences and interests. Portfolios are assessed according to
proficiency in design, presentation and layout, technical skills, and
content, similar to criteria used in design studios.
Applicants who have a weakness in one of the criteria for admission
can enhance their credentials with strengths in the remaining criteria.
Applicants can be admitted according to four conditions:
Unconditional; Provisional; Probationary; and, Deferred. Applicants who
do not meet the criteria of one of these conditions will be denied
admission to the Program.
Unconditional Admission
Applicants must possess a bachelor's degree from an accredited
college or university. Transcripts from all previous college or
university work, along with scores from the Graduate Record Exam (GRE),
and three letters of recommendation are required of all applicants. In
addition, applicants should have a minimum Grade Point Average (GPA) of
3.0, as calculated by the Graduate School. Applicants holding the first
professional degree in landscape architecture, or a related field, must
submit a portfolio.
