Estimated Program Costs and Professional Fees<\/strong><\/h4>

Students enrolled in Hampton University’s NAAB-accredited professional degree program are provided with an initial estimate of tuition, required fees, books, general supplies, and specialized materials necessary to complete the full course of study. In addition to standard university tuition and fees, the Department of Architecture assesses a program fee of $400 per semester<\/strong>, which supports required academic and professional components of the curriculum.<\/p>

This program fee is designed to cover or substantially offset<\/strong> several required expenses, including NCARB registration ($100)<\/strong>, freshman-year drafting and design supplies (approx. $500)<\/strong>, and a significant portion of the required Third-Year Urban Studio travel<\/strong>. The fee also supports student membership in professional organizations affiliated with the American Institute of Architects (AIA)<\/strong> and the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA)<\/strong>, both of which are integral to professional development and licensure preparation. Additionally, program fees contribute to the maintenance and operation of essential plotting, printing, and scanning equipment, housed in the Moses Library and the CAD Lab within it, are used throughout the curriculum.<\/p>

Students should note that additional costs<\/strong>, such as textbooks, specialized materials, and travel expenses beyond those covered by the program fee, may vary by course and academic year. Updated estimates and detailed information regarding tuition, fees, and financial aid are available through the University\u2019s official resources.<\/p>
