Advising

Current High School Students

Students interested in pursuing a degree from the David Eccles School of Business must first apply to and be admitted to the University of Utah. Students should indicate "Business" for proposed academic major (major field of study).

Once admitted to the University of Utah, students who have indicated Business as their academic major will begin as Pre-Business student.  During the semester a student is completing the last of the six Pre-Business courses, the student is encouraged to apply for Upper Division status.
