M Arch Course Waiver Request

Master of Architecture Course Waiver Request

If you are an incoming student who has studied architectural technology, architecture history, or closely related subjects and gotten a B or better, you may request a waiver (i.e., exemption) from certain required CCNY course(s) in our history, structures, and materials sequences that cover the same content. Students with graduate-level architecture studies may request a waiver with transfer credit. Design courses are not waivable. Submit one form for each waiver request.
