Support: Become an Academic Partner

Become an Academic Partner

Join a nationwide network of peer schools and connect young talents in architecture and design to the expansive professional community and wide-ranging opportunities at the League.

Academic Partnership connects students and faculty to the League’s membership network spanning architects, urban planners, artists, and policy-makers at different points in their career trajectories.

Students at Academic Partner schools enjoy free admission and advance reservations to League lectures, symposia, and discussions; access to student-only programs, including the annual Student Program and Ask-me-Anything events with lecturers and panelists; discounts and special opportunities with select partners; and invitations to members-only events such as the After Hours studio visits.
