Students wishing to apply for Advanced Standing, (e.g., those having partially completed a Professional Degree in Architecture at another institution), must apply in writing to the undergraduate officer to initiate the process. The School of Architecture at the University of Waterloo will need copies of official transcripts and course outlines (fully translated), and samples of work to initiate the process. Transfer credits will only be assessed if an offer of admission is made. The applicant may be invited for an interview. Advanced Standing applicants must also write the English précis test. Acceptances will depend on the quality of the applicants, as well as, space available.
