2 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What is the Program? The Interior Design 2+2 Program is best explained as a partnership between Northern Arizona University and Maricopa Community Colleges wherein students complete their Associates degree in Interior Design through Maricopa Community Colleges and then apply to transfer to NAU-Scottsdale to complete their Bachelor s degree. Is earning the Associate s Degree required? Yes, our partnership is set up so that students will graduate from both the community college and NAU. Students who have courses from out of state community colleges or other universities may use those credits towards earning the Bachelor s Degree. Glendale Community College (Certificate in Home Furnishings and Materials), Mesa Community College, Phoenix College and Scottsdale Community College are transfer partners for this degree. Can I enroll at the community college and NAU at the same time? Yes, we try to limit concurrent enrollment to one semester.

4 PROGRAM INFORMATION NAU s Interior Design program provides a wide range of educational opportunities based on an integrated approach to aesthetic, professional, and academic disciplines. Students complete four studio classes, which are taken sequentially over four semesters. Because most students wish to accomplish this degree in a twoyear period, Studio I always begins in the fall semester. In your junior year you would take Studio I and Studio II. In your senior year, the Studio III and Studio IV classes will be taken. There is no exception or alternative method to completing these courses. To earn this degree, complete at least 120 units of coursework, which we describe in the sections that follow: At least 5 units of liberal studies requirements. Be aware that you may not use courses with an ID prefix to satisfy these liberal studies requirements. At least 76 units of major requirements. Note that PHO courses, ART 100, and ART 101 do not fulfill the requirements of the B.S. Interior Design. Elective courses, if needed, to reach an overall total of at least 120 units Please note that you must complete NAU s diversity requirements by taking two -unit courses, one in U.S. ethnic diversity and one in global diversity awareness. These courses may be used to meet other requirements within your academic plan if you choose them carefully. Also note that NAU requires that at least 0 units of the courses you take for your degree must be upperdivision courses (those numbered 00 and above). You must also earn at least a C in all ID courses. You must have completed all the coursework used to fulfill Interior Design major and core requirements within the last 10 years. PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS The B.S. in Interior Design program meets the educational requirements for membership in the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) and the International Interior Design Association (IIDA). If you wish to become a member of these professional organizations, you can apply for associate membership after you graduate.
