Brigham Young University-Provo Top Questions

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about Brigham Young University-Provo?

Susie

BYU has been labeled the "stone-cold sober" school for 12 years. On any other campus, you are guaranteed to find alcohol, but here you don't. I don't drink, so this was a huge plus for me. Additionally, I'm not woken up at 3am by drunk freshmen pulling the fire alarm, which is really nice. We still have tons of fun - we just do it sober.

Mariah

Brigham Young University has so many opportunities. Students are able to go to various types of classes and make connections between them. I have gone to a Statistics class and been able to learn something new that applied to an unrelated class. The professors are wonderful to work with and willing to help you in anyway they can. I especially love how most of the students at BYU aspire to make a difference and are working hard to be able to do that. There is competition, but students are still willing to help each other out.

Malia

How amazing the campus and teachers are! My teachers help me to feel involved and usually stir up great class discusions about our lesson for that day. There's a strong sense of community at my school and people are generally very helpful, especially when you're running around campus, trying desperately to locate a class.

Gary

I brag about the thousands of dollars I'm saving with no disparity in the quality of education that a $40,000 private university has to offer. I also enjoy being able to experience a foreign environment away from home that offers some of the worlds most majestic skiing slopes. Among other things, the athletics particularly stand out on the national stage which provides ample room to brag about ranking in the competitive fields of division 1 football, basketball, soccer, track and field, etc.

Amy

I love the options. They tell you about activities and service opportunities and lectures and forums and classes. There is so much to choose from and so much easy access. I love everything including the low price. I brag about everything from students and professors to work to the service association to sporting events. It's fun and cheap and a continuous learning experience.
