Students from FIDER recognized interior design programs may bypass the Pre-Interior Design designation and be admitted directly into Interior Design if they present an approved portfolio and an overall grade point average of 2.50. All requirements for the program must be met by transfer students from other FIDER accredited programs including coursework and grade point average.

Students from programs not recognized by FIDER must have a minimum grade point average of 2.50 for all college course work to be admitted to Pre-ID. If the GPA requirement is met transfer students will be placed as General Architecture and Environmental Design majors (AED). Course work that will be required to fulfill the minimum requirements for admission to the Interior Design major will be prescribed through advising at the time of admission. Transfer students are advised to transfer early due to high demand on Pre-ID courses.
