Transcript: Up-to-date transcripts of undergraduate and graduate records. Copies of your official transcripts should be uploaded into the on-line application. Please do not mail your official transcripts to us until you have received an offer of admission from Virginia Tech. Please note that non-legible scans will not be accepted. Make sure your scanned documents are legible before uploading, as non-legible documents will result in processing delays. Make sure your scanned copy is of your official transcript. Curriculum Vitae: A Résumé and a Statement of Intent briefly describing the applicant’s background, personal interests, motivation for the study of architecture, and, if applicable, proposed area of research focus. Personal Statement: A Statement of Intent briefly describing the applicant’s background, personal interests, motivation for the study of architecture, and, if applicable, proposed area of research focus. Recommendation Letter: Three letters of recommendation from teachers, professionals or other people knowledgeable about the applicant’s work. Letters of recommendation that are not submitted on-line should be sent directly to the Graduate Architecture Program office. Portfolio: Candidates for admission to the M.Arch. 1 & 2 programs must demonstrate their competence in design beyond the academic transcript. A portfolio of studio work in architectural design and related visual studies is required of these applicants. For candidates for admission to the M.Arch.3 and MS.Arch. programs, submittal of a portfolio is not mandatory due to the variety of academic backgrounds of applicants. However, if an applicant has educational or professional experience in architecture, design, construction, or visual arts (drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, etc.), submittal of a portfolio is recommended. Portfolios should be sent directly to the Graduate Architecture Program office. Portfolios can no longer be returned, therefore please submit a copy and not your only original portfolio. Portfolios should be NO MORE than 20 (double sided) pages, bound preferably in a spiral notebook. Your full name should be printed clearly on the cover page. The size requirement is 8½” × 11” (North American standard) or A4 (International standard). The admissions committee does not have facilities to handle large drawings or original samples of an applicant’s work. Applicants should present a limited set of work, representative of their best efforts and most expressive of their interests and abilities. Applicants are discouraged from submitting digital portfolios; those choosing to submit a digital portfolio do so at their own risk, since, due to possible hardware and software compatibility issues, some members of the admissions committee may not be able to view it.

学位要求：Bachelor 专业要求：While a degree in architecture or a related field is not absolutely required, applicants must demonstrate relevant background and experience, as well as capabilities for undertaking advanced academic study. 申请链接：http://archdesign.vt.edu/admissions/graduate-admissions 招生邮箱：garch@vt.edu
