*Curriculum: Please keep in mind that new courses and department approvals can be added at any time and are always subject to change. We encourage you to review the BOSP Course Catalog and discuss your academic roadmap and requirements with your designated academic advisor(s) in advance. Please note: the BOSP Course Search (not Explore Courses) is your most accurate source for program course information.

Note key changes to the application process for Autumn 2024:

  • Applicants can apply to up to three programs.
  • Applicants will need to complete all program-specific questions and meet any prerequisites for each program they will apply to.
  • The deadline is: Monday, February 26, 2024 at Noon (12PM PT) .
  • Rankings and programs cannot be changed once the application is submitted.
  • There will be no second round; Programs MAY decide to accept late applications after decisions are announced if there is space available.
  • There will be one decision date. To accommodate the ranked applications, the review period will be longer and decisions are expected to be announced on Friday, April 12, 2024.
  • Students will only be reviewed by 2nd or 3rd ranked programs if their 1st or 2nd choice program either waitlists or does not accept the application.
  • At the time of decision it is possible that students are offered multiple choices; for example: a waitlist space for a first or second choice program and/or an accepted space in a 2nd or 3rd ranked program. At the time of the confirmation deadline students will need to determine which admission decision will become their final status and either remain on the waitlist OR accept admitted space. We will be unable to accommodate multiple statuses.
  • Late applications will launch on March 15, 2024 for the following Autumn Quarter BOSP Programs:  Berlin, Cape Town, Hong Kong, Istanbul Kyoto, New York, Paris, Santiago.  Waitlist-only applications will be accepted for the following programs: Australia, Florence, Madrid, and Oxford.  More information on deadlines and review dates will be available on this page on March 15.
