How to Become a Mortician in BitLife: Requirements and Salary
Learning how to become a mortician in BitLife starts with finishing university and finding the right vacancy. The main delays are missing job listings and unclear advice about which degree to choose.
Quick answer: Graduate from university, open Occupation → Jobs, find Mortician (Mortuary), and pass the interview.
1. Prepare for the BitLife mortician career
Build your Smarts while you are still at school. Use Study Harder each year and read books or visit the library when those activities become available.
Aim for around 90% Smarts to keep every university option open. Characters with lower scores still get hired, so there is no need to abandon one over a weaker bar.
If you would rather not grind the library every year, God Mode in the BitLife MOD APK can lift Smarts in one edit.
| Requirement | What to prepare |
|---|---|
| School | Finish secondary school before applying to university |
| Education | Complete a university degree |
| Smarts | Around 90% helps; lower scores can still be hired |
| Major | Recent career guides say any degree works; Biology is a reasonable choice |
| Extra training | No medical degree or PhD required |
| Hiring | Find the vacancy and pass its interview |
2. Choose a university major
After finishing school, open the Education section under Occupation and apply to university. Biology is a sensible first choice if it appears, but recent dedicated mortician guides say the career accepts any university degree.
Advice about the major differs between guides: some recommend a science subject, while others only require graduation. Treat Biology as a recommendation rather than a proven compulsory subject, and check the job’s requirements if your application is rejected.
Try a scholarship before taking a student loan. You can also ask your parents to pay, but have a backup plan if they refuse.
Keep studying until you receive the degree. Admission alone does not complete the education requirement, and medical school adds unnecessary study time for this career.
3. How to become a mortician in BitLife: find the job and pass the interview
Once you graduate, open Occupation → Jobs and scan the full-time vacancies. Look for Mortician with Mortuary in brackets and a coffin icon beside the listing.
Apply directly when it appears. You do not need to wait for a Mortuary Assistant position first: graduates apply straight for Mortician, and the fan wiki’s mortuary job table has no assistant stage.
Read the interview question and choose the professional response that fits its wording. The questions change from life to life, so an answer copied from a different question may fail.
What if the vacancy is missing?
Close the app fully, reopen it, and check the vacancies again. If the listing still does not appear, age up one year to get another set of jobs.
A missing vacancy does not prove you chose the wrong major. Keep the graduate character and repeat the search before spending more time on another degree.
4. Mortician salary and promotion
Use the salary shown in your own job offer when planning expenses. The fan wiki lists Mortician at roughly $29,000 a year, which makes this one of the lower-paid degree careers.
| Position | Published annual pay | Career route |
|---|---|---|
| Mortician | Roughly $29,000 (fan wiki); offers vary by country | Apply after university |
| Funeral Director | Roughly $31,000 in the wiki; current offers may differ | Promotion from Mortician |
Use Work Harder and watch your performance after hiring. Promotion is a later goal, so do not expect Funeral Director immediately or budget around a guaranteed promotion year.

Practical tips for getting hired
Keep the career goal separate from other challenge tasks. Working at a mortuary does not automatically handle ghosts or complete haunted-house objectives.
- Finish your degree before searching for the full-time role.
- Check the exact job title before accepting an offer.
- Refresh vacancies before restarting your whole life.
- Check a challenge’s progress after hiring to confirm the career objective counted.
FAQ
How do you become a mortician in BitLife?
Finish school, graduate from university, and apply for Mortician (Mortuary) in the full-time job list. Pass the interview to get hired. If the vacancy is absent, restart the app or age up and search again; a missing listing does not mean your character has failed the education requirement.
Do you need Biology to become a mortician?
Recent dedicated career guides say any university degree can work, although other guides recommend a science major. Biology is a reasonable choice when available, but it is not consistently documented as compulsory. If you already have a different degree, try applying before deciding to start another character.
Do you need to become a Mortuary Assistant first?
Graduates apply directly for Mortician after university. The wiki’s mortuary job table shows Mortician leading to Funeral Director, without an assistant role in that route. Search for the exact Mortician listing rather than waiting for an assistant vacancy that never appears in that route.
