LDS applicants need an ecclesiastical endorsement interview with a bishop and a stake president. Non-LDS applicants need an ecclesiastical endorsement from their local religious leader and a phone interview with the BYU Chaplain. Continuing and currently enrolled BYU students applying for graduate school, as well as full-time BYU employees applying for a graduate program, must also obtain a new endorsement. All applicants are encouraged to complete the Ecclesiastical Endorsement process well in advance of their respective graduate program application deadlines to prevent possible delays in being considered for admission.
