| ARE Eligibility by Jurisdiction |
| In June, NCARB’s Member Boards voted to approve the ARE Timing resolution granting early eligibility to the Architect Registration Examination® (ARE®) prior to the completion of the Intern Development Program (IDP). Now, each state board must decide individually if concurrent completion of IDP and ARE will be allowed. The chart below lists the status of implementation plans for individual boards. Please contact your state board for the latest information regarding IDP and ARE timing. |
