Graduate Admissions

Most graduate students begin their studies at CAPLA in the fall semester, although we accept applications throughout the year and will, on occasion, admit students for the spring semester. The application deadline for priority consideration is January 1; review of all applications submitted after this date will occur on a rolling basis. Portfolios of work are a required element of the application materials for the Master of Architecture, Master of Science in Architecture, and the Master of Landscape Architecture.
