   NCARB conditions specify that no training units may be earned prior to satisfactory completion of:
  • three years in an NAAB- or CACB-accredited professional degree program.
  • the third year of a four-year pre-professional degree program in architecture accepted for direct entry to an NAAB- or CACB-accredited professional degree program;
  • one year in an NAAB- or CACB-accredited Master of Architecture degree program for interns with undergraduate degrees in another discipline;
  • 96 semester credit hours as evaluated by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB) in accordance with NCARB's Education Requirement, of which no more than 60 hours can be in the general education subject area.

For purposes of calculating years of education, 32 semester credit hours or 48 quarter credit hours shall equal one year in an academic program.

It is important to understand that not all states have adopted the NCARB education and training standards.

All questions regarding your eligibility for examination must be directed to your state registration board.

To contact your state board, see Registration Boards.
