Join us for an in-person visit on Monday, October 6, 2025 for our Fall 2025 Graduate Visit Day! Prospective graduate students will tour our facilities, including the graduate studio and fabrication labs; meet faculty and students; and learn about the work happening in the program this semester.
Virtual Graduate Information Sessions
If you're unable to make it to Chicago in person, consider attending one of our Virtual Graduate Information Sessions. These one-hour online sessions are hosted by the Graduate Advisor or Director of Graduate Studies. Learn more about the School's of Architecture's curriculum, the admissions process, and the work and activities that graduate students are engaging with. There will also be a Q+A opportunity.
This fall we are also hosting a Virtual Director Talk and Grad Student Panel and a Virtual Graduate Portfolio Workshop to help prospectives develop their admissions portfolio.
