A Typical MBA Day

During the first semester in the program, students are extremely busy. Due to the strenuous daily schedule and the demanding team projects, BYU MBA students are not permitted to work during their first year in the program. A typical student schedule is found below. This schedule will vary for each student and will change with each new semester, but most MBA students are typically on campus from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.
