Want to Hire a Student for your Project?

The School does not endorse or serve as a platform for the hiring of our current students for services normally provided by Registered Architects in the State of Georgia. 

The current path towards becoming a Registered Architect is a rigorous one, typically including: 

  • Between 5 and 7.5 years of coursework at the undergraduate and/or graduate level and completion of an NAAB accredited professional degree 
  • 3,740 hours of tracked and approved experience under the guidance of a licensed architect as part of the NCARB AXP program 
  • Completion of six (6) Architectural Registration Exams 

As simple or straightforward as an architectural design task might appear to a potential client, it requires the guidance of a seasoned professional fluent in the many codes, constraints, and conventions of the profession. 

We encourage you to reach out to our professional organization – the Atlanta chapter of the American Institute of Architects – for a list of architects who can serve you.
