Application Process

The BBS Program uses the Yale Graduate School's online application, which you may access at https://gsas.yale.edu/admissions/degree-program-application-process. Our application deadline was December 1, 2020. If you wish to submit a late application, please do so as soon as possible.

Admitted students will enroll in the fall semester of 2021. We do not offer spring semester enrollment.

Please visit http://bbs.yale.edu/apply/faq.aspx and http://gsas.yale.edu/admissions/admissions-faqs for answers to commonly asked questions. For unanswered questions, please email:

1. bbs@yale.edu for general questions about applying to BBS.

2. http://gsas.yale.edu/admissions/contact for specific questions about the online application itself. Please make sure to place an "#" at the beginning of the subject field of your message to signal that you have a question related to the online application.
