Brigham Young Marriott MBA Deadlines 2024-2025
The Brigham Young University (BYU) Marriott MBA deadlines for the 2024-2025 admissions season are below.
BYU Marriott reviews applications on a rolling basis and is conducting its MBA application process in four rounds. International applicants need to apply by the Round 3 deadline. The Round 4 deadline is for domestic applicants only.
| Rounds | Application Deadline |
|---|---|
| Round 1 | December 1, 2024 |
| Round 2 | January 15, 2025 |
| Round 3 | March 1, 2025 |
| Round 4 | May 1, 2025 |
Applications are accepted beginning each year on October 1. The adcom then begins reviewing complete applications on November 1. Completed applications submitted prior to the given deadline will be given priority. Incomplete applications are not pushed to the next deadline round, but rather reviewed once they’re completed.
Once an application is complete, applicants can expect to hear if they qualify for an interview invitation within three weeks. After the interview, a letter of admissions or rejection will be issued within two weeks.
Required Materials
Applicants must submit the online application form, GMAT or GRE scores (exceptional waivers available), copies of academic transcripts from a bachelor’s degree from an accredited four-year college or university, essay, a resume, an ecclesiastical endorsement, and two recommendations. International applicants must provide scores from one of the following tests: TOEFL or English3 Proficiency. The adcom requires applicants to have two years of full-time work experience.
When Does Brigham Young Marriott Issue Invitations to Interview?
Interviews are offered by invitation only within three weeks of submitting the application. The timing of an interview invitation has no bearing on admission.

Recently wrote the GRE. It's not a super score but I will probably apply with it anyway. I am still considering retaking the test, as the next time I can take it is around the Round 2 deadline.
My educational background is in social sciences, so wasn't very quant-heavy. Looking at taking an additional quant course to back up my GRE score as the exam fee is about 10x the minimum wage in my country. Any suggestion is welcomed.
Long time listener first time caller. Love the podcast! Adding my profile just because I want to be part of the community.
R2 applicant for Fall 2025 entry.
Background: mid-to-late 20s US citizen, lower-income single parent upbringing.
Work experience: currently a manager at a humanitarian INGO in active / post-conflict settings (think Afghanistan, Yemen, etc.) with several million in project budget under management and overseeing multiple teams. Will have been in emergency aid for 2 years upon matriculation, career before that was 1 year quantitative analyst ---> 1 year teaching English abroad. High impact job, recently promoted.
Academics: 3.27 cumulative. Small state school for first year with a 4.0. Transferred to an Ivy, but had to work full time to support family, had just above a 3.0 at the Ivy. I've also done a masters since at a top 5 UK (shout-out to Alex!) with distinction (3.9+ equivalent). Additionally, took Calculus this year (got an A-) to give schools a bit more reassurance on quant abilities since my quant record in college had its ups and downs, and to demonstrate respect for the rigors of the Y1 MBA curriculum.
Test: took the GMAT only once, 685 (86V 82Q 84D). First mock exam was a 625 with a terrible quant score, but brought quant up to 76th percentile with a couple months of study. Internet is too slow to take online, so only had one chance to do it in-person while I was on leave -- retake physically impossible even if I wanted to.
ECs: Very focused on social entrepreneurship. Have also been helping teach / support one of the foreign language programs at the state school I originally went to and transferred out of. Community service award as well, and mountain climber.
Post-MBA goal is social entrepreneurship that can help people in crisis contexts.
I've listened to enough Wire Taps to guess exactly what the advice will be: "You might want to cast a wider net due to the lower GPA, right now you're only targeting top schools." -- Absolutely fair call. However, what I want to do is extremely difficult and will require a ton of resources. I've selected the programs I think best fit my goals / have a strong social and entrepreneurial mission. I don't particularly mind getting dinged everywhere and reapplying next year if need be.
Long post, thanks for reading! Have a great holiday!
