Application tips

  • Resume: Please include months and years of employment for each job listed on your resume. Months need to be listed to allow the MBA program to accurately calculate and give you credit for your work experience.
  • Statement of Intent: We recommend that the statement of intent be one to two pages, single spaced. In addition to using the statement to express why you want to attend BYU and what you bring to the program, you may use it as a letter of explanation to bring to the admission committee's attention anything you would like to explain that is not addressed elsewhere.

  • Letters of recommendation: The Executive MBA application requires three professional letters of recommendation. The letters of recommendation must be submitted online; instructions are available in the online application.

  • Transcripts: Please wait to send your transcripts to BYU until you've submitted your online application. If you graduated from BYU (Provo campus) you don't need to submit transcripts. Applicants may upload an unofficial copy of a transcript to their application, but are still required to submit one official transcript from each university attended to Graduate Studies.

  • Hard copy application materials: All paper application materials should be submitted together in one packet to:
    BYU Office of Graduate Studies
    105 FPH
    Provo, UT 84602

    These materials will be processed and cleared by the Graduate Studies office, and forwarded to the MBA program for review.
