How can Transfer Students Receive Credit for Previous Coursework?
Students coming into Urban Design and Architecture Studies from other college programs should meet with the Director or Assistant Director of the program to determine if courses previously taken can be counted toward the major. Please bring copies of course syllabi, reading lists, and descriptions to this meeting. Please note that Urban Design and Architecture Studies advisers will determine what previous courses count toward the major, but not how many points the will count toward graduation. Decisions about credit points are made exclusively by the Registrar’s office. Students entering Urban Design and Architecture Studies from the General Studies Program (GSP) should try to complete the pre-requisites while still enrolled in GSP. The Department will offer a section of Shaping the Environment in the spring term to allow GSP students to begin the major in their Sophomore year.
