      Thanks for your email.  Yes, the AAS in Architectural Technology from MC is still the best way to go.  Pre-Transfer Advising recently met with the UMD Director of Student Services for Architecture, Brent Hernandez (bhernand@umd.edu), and he reassured us that students who have the AAS can graduate from UMD in just two more years.  Below are the course equivalencies.

·  MATH150 or 181 Calculus = MATH120 or 140 at UMCP

·  ARCH101 Intro Architecture = satisfies ARCH171

·  ARTT265 and 266 Architecture History = ARCH225 and 226

·  ARCH104 Architectural Graphics + ARCH183 CAD = ARCH200

·  PHYS203 General Physics = PHYS121

·  ARCH103 Building Tech + CMGT100 Construction Methods = ARCH462

·  ARCH200 3D CAD + ARCH202 CAD REVIT = ARCH300

Please let me know if I can provide any more info at this time.  Thank you!

Best,

Leslie Lindeman

Changes in the Architecture Program at MC

Shorieh Talaat will be taking over as the Architecture Program Coordinator beginning in the fall 2017.   

Architecture Update (Fall 2015)

There are more transfer options than ever before for our Architecture graduates.  We have at last achieved an agreement with UMCP SOAP for our grads who successfully complete their AAS at MC and are accepted to UMCP.  Plus, we have existing articulation with Morgan SOAP and successful relationships with CUA SOAP, Philadelphia University SOAP, IIT SOA in Chicago, Boston Architecture Center, Florida Atlantic University, and many more schools of architecture....

in order to treansfef form MC Architecture, one needs to complete their AAS at MC in Architecture.  I have been very active in founding an organization called the Coalition of Community College Architecture Programs and this is a very important aspect of our coalition and efforts.

Architecture - Agreement with UMD

For the first time ever, UMCP School of Architecture and Planning announced after several years of efforts on the part of the Architecture Program that all graduates from the Montgomery College Architecture Program who are accepted at UMCP will be accepted into the UMCP School of Architecture and Planning as a junior.  Additional general education courses that were part of the freshman and sophomore years will not be necessary.  Acceptance into Junior Year studio will be determined by the Montgomery College Architecture graduate’s design portfolio. [The discussion was finalized in January 2015 but I was waiting to hear about acceptances.]
