Instructions printable pdf
For students who started studio sequence fall 2007 and have completed or currently enrolled in ALA 100, 102, 121, 122, and 124 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 only on a space available basis, and such, transfers are limited to students with equivalent course work who are competitive with continuing students.

- Students applying to more than one program must submit separate application materials (including a separate portfolio) as required by that major.
- If you change your mailing address between the time you submit your application to upper division and the admission decision notice date, please contact the department(s) where you applied to update the address on your program application.

- A total of 80 BSD and/or BSLA students, making up five studio sections of 16 students per section will be accepted into the SALA degree program. The exact break down of BSD versus BSLA students accepted is dependent upon the numbers of students selecting each program and the final overall score of all students applying to both programs. For example, if there are 25 students selecting the BSLA program, and at least 16 of these students are above the top 80 final score, then there will be one BSLA section studio section of 16 students; if there are 45 students selecting the BSLA program and at least 30 of these students are above the top 80 final score, then there will be two BSLA studio sections of 16 students; etc.
Admission Decision

Matriculation
- Students that pass the degree milestone will be expected to begin that portion of the program at the beginning of the immediate next fall term. If you have any questions regarding this policy please contact the department chairperson or director.
