BYU Marriott offers ten limited-enrollment undergraduate programs. These programs are highly competitive. For more information, please see below.
Application Requirements
General Information
- You may apply to a maximum of three undergraduate programs at once
- Academic (GPA measures) and holistic (essay and resume) criteria are evaluated in the admissions process
- Entry is competitive; not every student who satisfies the minimum criteria will be guaranteed acceptance
- Students are required to rank their program preferences (these preferences will not be shared with the admissions committee)
- Switching BYU Marriott majors is not allowed once accepted
- By accepting admission, students commit to a junior core during the upcoming fall semester and to subsequent coursework in sequence according to the program’s flowchart
- According to university policy, students must declare a major before reaching sixty credit hours. Declaring pre-management qualifies. However, students should apply to BYU Marriott before accruing ninety credit hours
Academic Criteria
- The admissions committee may review your entire academic record when processing your application
- Each program has 3-5 prerequisite courses
- All prerequisites must be completed before the application deadline (last business day of June)
- To be eligible to apply, prerequisite GPA must be at least 3.00. For averages, please see the admission statistics below
Repeated and Transferred Prerequisites
- The application process discounts repeated and transferred prerequisite courses to provide the admissions committee a more objective evaluation of applicants
- This discount does not change the actual grades on your transcript; it is displayed only on your application
- The standard discount for transferring or repeating prerequisite courses is one grade-step (e.g., A to A-)
- The accounting program deviates from this standard by discounting repeated prerequisites a full letter grade (e.g., A to B)
Essay
- Each undergraduate program requires an essay. For more information, please see our Essay Tips
Résumé
- Each program, with the exception of accounting, requires a résumé submission. Download the BYU Marriott résumé template or visit Career Launch for help with résumés
