Predock first attended the University of Missouri in Columbia School of Engineering, then the University of New Mexico, where he studied engineering, emulating his father. Although he was a successful and academically inclined student, Predock found little fulfillment in his studies in engineering.

Upon completing a technical drawing course taught by Don Schlegel, an architecture professor at UNM, Predock began reevaluating his career choices. After a short hiatus from academic life, he returned to UNM at age 21 to study architecture.
