The landscape architecture faculty votes on each applicant. The applicant may be admitted, rejected, or recommended for pre-landscape architecture status. Applicants are encouraged to visit the landscape design studios, talk to students who are in the program, and find out as much as they can about the profession by talking with landscape architects in their community. Applicants will be notified of the admission decision by May 15. Successful applicants must notify the department of their intention to enter by June 15 to reserve a position in the program.
