What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Alexa

I wish I would have known more abotu preparing beforehand for college in general. Nothing in particular about BYU-Idaho, is there that I wish I had known. I hope you each will prepare in all aspects of your life. There is a lot to learn and be prepared for--the more you know the better our experience will be.

I wish I had known how much the professors would care about me on a personal level, how kind and welcoming the students were, and how many wonderful opportunities it offers to students with different interests. How the burden of living on my own would be made light by so many willing to assist me in the learning process, and that independence and college is the best time in life. More than anything I wish I had known how much I wouldn't want to leave during my break semester so that I could've afforded to stay.

Steven

I wish I had know what to expect. Because before I left all I knew about college I had seen in movies but when i got here it was way different than the movies portrayed whcih is good I like it this way better.

Jina

I wish I knew how cold it would have been. Other than that I loved everything about BYU Idaho

Dustin

I knew everything that I needed to. Just look at the website, it's very helpful.

Spencer

I wish I knew of the problems with all of the online systems. It crashes all the time. Unfortunately, most of the teachers have their students submit their work online. This creates problems throughout the week. It is worst during admissions, mid-terms, and finals weeks. 17,000 kids are turning in all of their papers, and the system just can't handle it.

Kristen

The college prepares you well there really isn't anything I would add to my pre-college knowledge.

Annie

Before I came to Brigham Young University Idaho I wish I knew how much support and caring I would have from my teachers and classmates. I wish I had known what a friendly enviroment it is and how easy it would be to fit in so I didn't spend so much time worrying.

Lacey

I wish I had known the best way to plan your schedule. It is very cold in Rexburg making it harder to get up so early and make it to class. Also I wish I would have none more what major to pick.
