    *Freshman applicants who meet the priority deadline will still be considered with all other applicants who apply by the final deadline and will not receive a decision any earlier. However, those that meet the priority deadline will receive extra consideration in the decision making process. In other words, meeting the priority deadline will factor in to our holistic review. Because every aspect of your application is considered in the holistic review, it is not possible to say how much the additional consideration will matter for a particular applicant.

    In order to be considered for eligible scholarships, freshman applicants must also complete and submit the BYU scholarship application by February 1.

    BYU does not admit applicants who will be younger than 17 years of age by the first day of class of their first enrollment because of the intellectual, social, and emotional maturity required of university students.
