Transfer Student Information

Students intending to transfer to the Marriott School of Management (MSM) must first seek admission to Brigham Young University by completing the following steps:

1. Apply to Brigham Young University through the admissions office. (http://saas.byu.edu/admissionsServices/; 801-422-2507;  admissions@byu.edu)
2. Send official transcripts from all previously attended institutions to BYU. This should be done well before the BYU Marriott School application deadline to allow enough time to process the transcript. The MSM is unable to process your application if there are missing semesters, classes, or associates degree from your transfer school. Transfer students are often required to submit official transcripts twice: when they apply to BYU and again when they complete their studies at the transferring school. 
3. Check for general education transfer evaluation information at
   http://saas.byu.edu/admissionsServices/transferEvaluation/

Management, Information Systems, Accounting, and Finance at Brigham Young University are limited enrollment programs. After completing the necessary prerequisites, students must make formal application to the MSM and be accepted to the major.

It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that transfer courses will satisfy Marriott School requirements. All Management, Information Systems, and Accounting transfer courses must be evaluated through the Undergraduate Programs Office in 460 TNRB (msm_transfer@byu.edu). Many courses have already been evaluated.

Evaluated transfer course equivalents for select colleges can be accessed below:

For colleges and business-related courses that have not yet been evaluated by the MSM, transfer students may email a complete syllabus including a topical course calendar for the semester the course was taken (msm_transfer@byu.edu). Students must include their name, BYU ID number, phone number, and email with requests for evaluation. The evaluation process typically requires two weeks. If you have questions regarding courses taken at other colleges, contact the Management Advisement Center at (801) 422-4285 or at msm_transfer@byu.edu.
