GRE scores

GRE scores strongly recommended for applicants to certain programs

While not required of most applicants, submission of GRE scores is strongly encouraged for applicants to architectural history, art history, cinema studies, and creative business leadership. Performance on the GRE may assist in demonstrating adequate educational preparation and ability to succeed in academic coursework at the graduate level.

Applicants whose bachelor's degrees are conferred by institutions that are not approved by the U.S. Department of Education and/or do not hold appropriate institutional accreditation, or do not have appropriate specialized or programmatic accreditation, or have not been evaluated and proven comparable in course content and level of instruction to SCAD, or are not recognized by the ministry of education or equivalent agency in the applicant's home country, are required to take the GRE and submit official scores to SCAD.
