Returning Missionary Info
Use the Returning Missionary Checklist for the details you need to return to BYU following your mission. If you are preparing to serve, see the Departing Missionary Checklist.
Timing
It is necessary to enroll within a certain amount of time after returning from your mission (see chart below). Failure to enroll by the appropriate semester may result in having to reapply for admission. You will be expected to attend the semester/term indicated on your deferment. Failure to attend may result in the loss of enrollment eligibility and the loss of classes for future enrollment. Please note that it is possible to take a leave of absence directly after a mission.
Return from Mission | Enroll No Later Than |
October – April | Fall Semester |
May – September | Winter Semester |
International
International students on deferment will need to submit financial verification and the International Student Deposit a few months before the semester you are due to return. Registration holds will be put on the account until these requirements are completed.
