The Associate of Science in Architectural and Building Technology, offered through the University of Guyana's Faculty of Technology, admits students with five CSEC or IGCSE/GCE O-level passes covering English Language, Mathematics and a related subject such as Art, Geography or a science, alongside applicants holding technician diplomas or construction-focused GTEE certificates.
For those without formal academic qualifications, the university offers a mature-entry route built on prior learning: candidates sit the University of Guyana Entrance Examination, submit a portfolio demonstrating relevant skills and experience, and attend a face-to-face interview, held in person or by Skype, before being admitted.
First-year studies combine subjects such as Foundations of Human Geography and Mathematics for Construction, reflecting the programme's blend of design, technical drawing and building-science content.

Admission Requirements: Entry requires five CSEC General Proficiency passes (Grades I-II, or III from 1998) or IGCSE/GCE O-level passes, including English Language, Mathematics, and Art, Geography, History/Social Studies or a science subject such as Integrated Science, Physics, Chemistry or Engineering Science. Equivalent regional or international technical qualifications are also accepted, including a GTEE Technician Diploma in Building and Civil, an Ordinary Diploma in Science (Physics or Chemistry), GTEE Building and Civil Construction certificates, or a Certificate in Architectural Drawing. Mature applicants without these qualifications may enter by passing the University of Guyana Entrance Examination and submitting a portfolio of prior learning, followed by a face-to-face interview held in person or via Skype.
