How To Apply
We offer a rolling admission deadline to the Art & Technology undergraduate major. New incoming students and continuing UO students may apply at any time by following the link below and submitting their online application. Complete applications are reviewed on a monthly basis during the academic year. It typically takes about four to six weeks from submission before applicants will receive the decision.
As an incoming freshman or transfer student, to apply to be an Art & Technology major you must submit both the University of Oregon admission application to be admitted to the university and the Art & Technology major application.
