    Requirements

    Entry Requirements

    There is no secret formula for admission to BYU. All applications go through a holistic review, meaning everything in the application is considered. Take the application for admission seriously and tell us about yourself! If there is something specific you would like the committee to know, be sure to tell us in your application. Make sure the work is your own and be thorough. Your application, including your essays, should demonstrate your preparation in the aims of a BYU education.

    All secondary education and college work done outside of the United States (not U.S. accredited) must be evaluated by an international credential evaluation agency at the applicant’s expense. This includes international work that may have been evaluated by a U.S. accredited institution and included on a U.S. accredited high school or university transcript.

    BYU accepts evaluations from International Education Research Foundation (IERF) and SpanTran. Please note that even if you are applying to multiple CES institutions, only one evaluation is required. DO NOT send your transcripts directly to us unless they are submitted by an accredited U.S. institution. We will discard any international transcripts that are not properly evaluated.
