The professional program for a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture Degree can be completed in ten semesters of coursework and so is not eligible for the Eight-Semester Degree Completion Program. However, the following ten-semester sample plan shows how a first-year student could obtain a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture Degree in five years if the student is admitted to the Fall-Spring Architectural Design Studio and subsequently is admitted to the professional program.
