About

Exploring Architecture, Arts, and Design

Exploring Architecture, Arts, and Design is an undecided major in the College of Architecture, Arts, and Design (AAD) that serves as a portal to the college's four and five year degree programs.

Choosing a degree program can be tough. The Exploring AAD major was created to help students who know they are interested in Architecture, Arts, and Design disciplines, but not sure exactly which major they want to pursue. Students considering the highly competitive Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Interior Design, and Industrial Design programs but aren't sure which one of those majors they want to apply to may find the Exploring AAD major a better start.

How Does it Work?

Once accepted to the Exploring AAD major, students will pursue coursework across the College of Architecture, Arts, and Design while also taking classes that meet some of their general education curriculum course requirements. We've secured permission for our Exploring AAD majors to take certain classes typically limited to Architecture, Interior Design, Industrial Design, Landscape Architecture, Studio Art, Art History, Theatre Arts, and Cinema students. Exploring AAD majors are advised about these courses during new student orientation.

You'll be advised by Rob Jacks, Director of Academic Advising in the College of Architecture, Arts, and Design, and receive advice on taking classes relevant to a AAD major or majors you're interested in and assistance with how to transition to another AAD major.

Entry Requirements

International Baccalaureate Education System

Virginia Tech encourages prospective students to seek the most challenging high school courses possible. Students taking International Baccalaureate (IB) courses will be considered competitive for freshman admissions. An applicant's entire academic profile will be reviewed holistically.

To receive credit for International Baccalaureate (IB) examinations, an official transcript of examination results should be forward to the Registrar's Office directly from the issuing institution. To determine how many credits you may receive please visit the Registrar's website.

All first-year and transfer students accepting admission to Virginia Tech and seeking college credits for IB examinations must arrange for an official transcript of examination results to be sent to Virginia Tech by the IB Offices once available.

How to Apply

For students entering in 2023, Virginia Tech will exclusively use the Common App for first-year and transfer applications. While we remain a Coalition member, we have paused the Coalition application for one cycle to provide ample time to adjust to the new application platform that Coalition will be using.
