A portfolio submission and interview will form part of the admissions process for candidates that have earned a first or 2:1 on their Part 1 architecture degree (or equivalent, if international) or relevant discipline (for example, architectural engineering, or urban design). 

In case where an exceptional portfolio and interview score is achieved by a candidate with a 2:2 from with an Architecture degree, an offer may be made.

To undertake the MArch, all students must complete the entire course with Loughborough University. Candidates should note that there is no provision for direct entry to the second year of the course, nor is there any opportunity to study abroad at another University for any period of the course.

• Portfolio

Your design portfolio should be a single pdf document with a maximum of 30 pages and maximum size of 50MB. The portfolio should clearly communicate your creative and design skills applied to architectural and/or urban design projects. We look for a breadth of conceptual thinking, a rigorous design process and creative architectural propositions which challenge conventional practices and push the boundaries of architectural thinking. Showcasing a wide range of ways in which you explore architectural elements and representational skills from hand to digital is beneficial.

Application deadline:  July 31st
