Brigham Young University-Hawaii Top Questions

The classes are very small and personal. My largest class has 50 people in it. The teachers know you by name and will help you one on one. You do not get lost in the crowd of students; you are more than a number here.

The location of my school grants its students the most bragging rights. I spend every evening on my balcony watching the sunset over the ocean. I'm a two minute walk to the beach, a 10 minute drive to some of the most world-renowned surf spots and can get to dozens of some of the most beautiful hikes and lookouts Hawaii has to offer within an hour. Being one of the most international schools in the world also makes it possible for me to be aquainted with a myriad of cultures and peoples in an environment that oozes aloha.

Its a small campus so you get a lot more attention from the teachers and they have a greater concern for wanting to help students with their studies.

I brag to my friends that my school has small classes consisting of no more than 30 students to have one-on-one time with our teachers, instead of large lecture halls. I also say that we have one of the most diverse schools in the nation because there were students at Brigham Young University-Hawaii from 73 different countries. Making friends and meeting people from around the world in a tropical paradise like Hawaii couldn't be any better because it shows how students from around the world can come together to share the same beliefs and values.

The diversity of students. There are over 70 different countries represented. It gives you a great opportunity to meet people from all over the world. I am married to someone from a different country and we never would have met except if we had come to this school.

I love how this school is laided out and organized; it's easy to get to classes on time and everything is within walking distance. I also love that you have the opportunity to finish a bachelor's degree in 9semesters with a special track; you can graduate but also finish school in less time! :)

Brigham Young University has a great family atmosphere and a multi-cultural background. They welcome many cultures and accept students from all over the world. It's standards and honor code are strictly enforced and followed. Everything is convieniently located.

Diversity is the number one thing that BYU Hawaii is awesome for. There are students from over 70 countries. It is so great how students from all different ethnicities can get along so well. Anywhere you go, you are always hearing a different language. For me, learning about other cultures is so exciting. This is why I think that BYUH is so awesome!

This school is the most diverse school in the world. We have students from more than seventy-six different countries. I get to experience completely different cultures every single day at this school. I have friends, literally, from all over the world. Not to mention, we are located in Hawaii. It is only a five minute walk to the beach. This place is absolutely beautiful. There is so much to do and so much to experience about this island. I am so blessed to live in such an amazing place.

The people are by far the best thing about this school. There are students from over 70 countries and all 50 states. Because of this, I have the privelege of meeting hundreds of people from all kinds of different backgrounds. In 20 years, when other schools have reunions making business deals within the United States, I will connect with friends from Zambia and Korea and make international deals that will help to transform the world.
