desiree Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Hey guys. I have a few questions about the MDes program at Harvard GSD. Does it require (or strongly prefer) architecture / urban planning background from applicants? It seems like they have a strong preference from the website and student works they posted. However, some students I knew from this program are not doing anything architecture related at all... I am quite confused. I have a design background from college, and my portfolio focus more on interaction design and user experience design. I mentioned some but not so important experience related to spatial planning in my essay. Do you think I still have a chance to get in? Thanks!

Marcus1995 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Hey, I also have this question. Although my background is interior architecture, but I used UX and interior portfolio to apply. I attended their open house and found out some of the students' projects are about Tech and interaction, so I don't know which backgrounds they are preferred. Did you get the admission from them?
