Admissions Overview

BYU-Idaho has an open admission policy with a 95.56% acceptance rate, meaning nearly everyone who applies gets in. However, this doesn't tell the full story. The middle 50% of admitted students score between 990 and 1200 on the SAT, with an average of 1095. What really matters here isn't your test scores but your fit with the school's mission and honor code. As a university owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, BYU-Idaho seeks students who will embrace its religious values, service orientation, and commitment to both academic and spiritual growth. Character and dedication to the LDS faith carry more weight than perfect grades.
