<p>…can’t tell you about 4-yr programs, but you may have trouble transferring into the 3rd year of a BARCH as a junior. My daughter is in the program at Penn State and she has a friend that transferred in as a sophomore, but he had to start as a first year student. She also has friends that were PSU students, but were admitted to the architecture program in sophomore or junior year and had to start as first year students (so 6 or 7 years at PSU to get the BARCH degree). There are 10 studio classes that must be taken sequentially, so that’s 10 semesters. You should contact the schools you’re interested in to see what their policy is for transfer students. It could end up taking you 6 or 7 years to complete the degree (and more in tuition). Good luck.</p>
