I wish I had known that the housing is not good here in Hawaii. But I like living and learning here with poeple who have same cultural and religeous value.

In all honesty there is nothing I wish I would've known. My school is quite availabe for questions, and they answered all my question seriously regardless of how important they may have sounded to others. Everytime I would call in the operaters were able to direct me to the person who would help me the best. They would always go out of their way to make sure that I had been helped; I was completely satisfied.

I just wish that I had known better about american way of studying and teaching. Studying in the U.S is way different than studying in Asian countries. I just wish that if I had come here earlier, I would have learned more things. I prefer american way of studying.

I wish I better understood how expensive the cost of living actually was.

I believe I was really prepared to go to Brigham Young University- Hawaii. I spent a lot of time researching about the area, talking to friends that already go there and students that have graduated from Brigham Young. The only things that really had me scared was the price of food in the island, it was a little more expensive than I thought. However, I was able to survive the experience of living there.

I really wish I would have been smarter in planning my education. I knew what I wanted to do, but I did not plan how I was going to get there well enough. I would have liked to know that I should look at prerequisites for graduate school a lot sooner and scheduled those in. I wish that I would known to do a pre-med minor along with my chosen degree. I wish that I would have taken advantage of the schools resources better.

When you think about the friendly, laid back spirit that encompasses the culture of Hawaii, it's hard to imagine that a campus that is deep in the heart of Hawaii would be anything different. And although BYU-h is extremely friendly, welcoming, and in many ways remains laid back, the professors definately demand a level of dedication that requires more than attendance. So I wish I had been more prepared for the amount of study, research, and ultimatley time that is required to do well here at Brighamn Young University-Hawaii.

I wish I had knew that they offered a Graphic Design Emphasis Program, because I would have enrolled in that program to start my courses.
