Architectural education is unlike any type of education you’ve likely encountered to date. We highly encourage you to attend one of our architecture-specific information sessions online or in-person.

In-person Campus visits for prospective students

General Weekday Campus Visits

The School of Architecture hosts in-person, architecture-specific information sessions on Mondays and Fridays at 11:00 a.m. ET. These sessions include a program overview and a guided tour of our facilities. We encourage you to join as part of the comprehensive “Campus Visit” offered by the Syracuse University Office of Admissions. To learn more and register, click here . When signing up, you can choose a school or college information session, with our 11:00 a.m. sessions listed at the bottom of the form. 

Architectural education is unlike any type of education you’ve likely experienced to date. The design studio sequence is at the core of our program. We highly recommend you meet us when studios are in session to learn more about life at SU and the architecture studio experience. 

For this reason, we do not participate in Syracuse Saturdays. If you choose to visit on a Saturday, or if you take a self-guided tour, we strongly encourage you to attend an online information session and learn about our program and the portfolio requirements.

Admitted students, please visit the Class of 2030 page to learn more about upcoming sessions.

Optional Virtual Portfolio Interview

Every fall optional interviews are an opportunity for you to meet with our architecture admissions team and provide us with insight as to why you are interested in studying architecture, describe the portfolio work that you chose to include, and your interest in studying at our prestigious institution. This is not a critique of your work.

For more information and to register for a time slot, visit our Portfolio Requirements page.

Virtual lecture series

Every year, the School of Architecture welcomes a variety of lecturers featuring renowned architects, faculty from various institutions, and other prominent figures. We invite you to join these events to learn more about the field and explore what our current students are experiencing.
