      Can I become an architect when I finish my study at Otis College?
      • 2223
        Hi Tran, Students that graduate from our Architecture/ Landscape/ Interior Program will go and receive further experience and education to become a licensed architect. To be licensed as an architect involves a combination of both education and experiences. Not to mention there are different individual requirements for each state that architect need to follow. Students right out of school can work in different firms. I would advise you to go to our ALI website for further information: http://www.otis.edu/academics/architecture_landscape_interiors/index.html
