Welcome to Architecture Admissions at UC Berkeley. We are pleased that you are considering joining us.

Undergraduate Study. Our undergraduate curriculum provides a liberal education among an active community of students, scholars, creative designers, and technologists concerned with the built environment, within the larger environment of a great university.

Graduate Study. Our graduate programs aim to educate architects and scholars who contribute to the practice and discipline of architecture and to the development of a technologically sophisticated and humane built environment.

Summer Study. Curious about architecture? If you're a college junior or senior or have an undergraduate degree with a major in another field, check out the Berkeley [IN]ARCH summer program in architecture. This eight-week immersion program presents a condensed experience of architectural study at the graduate level and will prepare you for applying to a Master of Architecture program.


Our next admission cycle is for Fall 2013 admission. The Department of Architecture does not accept applications for spring-semester admissions. Deadlines and links to application instructions are as follows. (Note: Where omitted, specific dates will be posted as soon as they are available.)
