Hi Everyone,

My name is Prakash and I am 1st year International student from India. Since the application process for an international student is a little bit different, I am here to help you guys out if you have any queries. Additionally, If you have any queries related to courses or any other relevant topics feel free to ask it here. I and few other 1st year students will try to answer then as soon possible.


Also, I am a college Ambassador of Prodigy finance (a platform that enables financing for international postgraduate students who attend a participating business school or postgraduate institution internationally WITHOUT any co-signer!!! ) for BYU so feel free to approach me( once you got admitted and looking for educational loan to finance your study) to know more about it.

NOTE:
1.Highly recommend everyone to attend the info session conducted by BYU MBA Admission team as they provide tonnes of information and also allow you to ask questions at the end. You can also find recorded one if you have missed it.
2.Go through the previous years thread on BYU, they are like a treasure, more you dig deep more insight you will get.
3.We have our finals next week(till 15th Dec), so there might me some delay in answering your queries.

All the best for your Application and I will see you all next year!!!

Hey Prakash,

I have just ONE QUERY - What in the world is this Ecclesiastical Endorsement? I tried to submit one to the school, but they won't accept it. I am a Hindu, thus most of the things in the form do not apply to me. How do I go about it? This is just crazy; a school putting so much emphasis on religion.

Hey,
You need to take the print out of the Ecclesiastical Endorsement and get it signed from a local temple priest and send it to the adcom via email. They will then schedule a call with their church priest and you will have a discussion with him and then the adcom will confirm on the Endorsement.

I got notification of full tuition scholarship about a week after my admission notification. Very exciting, and also very humbling! I am not 100% sure on where I will be going yet, as I have another full tuition offer (from UNC Kenan-Flagler) and should be getting a decision from Oxford today. But I have to say that so far in the process BYU has exceeded all of my expectations. I'm very impressed by the students and faculty I've been in contact with, and I feel that the program and network are even more high-caliber than the rankings would suggest. I've visited UNC, so I definitely want to pay BYU a visit on the 24th before making any decisions. Also, my wife is from Utah, so she may force me to go there no matter what :lol:

Also, if this helps anyone, here is how the admissions process played out for me:

Jan. 18: Submitted app (I was shooting for R2, but had a bunch of apps to work on and got stuck on getting the 3rd letter of recommendation for BYU. So I ended up applying early R3).
Feb. 6: Got interview invite (email)
Feb. 13: Interview (over Skype, with Dr. Snow. Very laid-back and positive interview. Why MBA now, why BYU, and some low-pressure questions about my work experience. Felt more like a casual chat than an interview.)
Feb. 15: Admitted! (email)
Feb. 22: Scholarship notification (email)
