5 Year Architecture Program
The five-year Master's of Architecture program is a four-plus-one model. Students must first complete their bachelor's degree in architecture at Norwich before applying for admission to the one-year masters program. Students who received their undergraduate degree from another institution are not eligible to apply for admission to the master's program until they have first obtained their bachelor's degree in architecture through Norwich.
Students applying for the undergraduate Architecture program must complete the same admissions process as other new students to the university, with an additional creative component.
