APPLYING TO PASS DEGREE MILESTONE – Admission to Second Year

Available as a Printable PDF

For students that have completed (or are currently enrolled in): ALA / PUP 100 and PUP 190 with a “C” or better.

Applying to pass the degree milestone requirement (second year) is competitive and limited by available resources.  Selection is awarded to those applicants demonstrating the highest promise for professional success.  Students applying to more than one degree program in the College of Design must submit a separate application and portfolio (if required) to each program. Students not enrolled at ASU when they apply to pass the degree milestone must also submit an application for admission to the university.  Students that do not pass the degree milestone are not dismissed from the college and may reapply the following year or transfer to other programs.  Students who plan to reapply should contact a college academic advisor.  Transfers into programs are considered on a space available basis, and such transfers are limited to students with equivalent course work who are competitive with continuing students.

Submission Deadline

WHEN: April 1, 2008 before 5:00 p.m.
WHERE: College of Design North building, room 162
