Love it love it love it. Everyday I am grateful for the decision that I made to go here.

I think that BYU is the best option for LDS students who consider their faith to be an important part of their lives. It really is impossible to talk about BYU without recognizing the role that spirituality plays in your experience. Student wards provide an amazing community and tons of social activities. Along with that students are extremely friendly and willing to make friends with just about anyone. In my experience there aren't any cliques or exclusive social groups. Academically there are a lot of interesting courses and professors genuinely care about the students. My only complaints are that the class sizes can be insane for some of the lower level courses and the majors all have a ton of requirements.

I love the atmosphere and the people, it really fosters a great spiritual atmosphere perfect for growth and development. It's not too large or too small. Most people react positively when I tell them I go here because it is a competitive school with a great reputation.

Brigham Young University is a wonderful place for those who seek peers with similar educational and moral goals. The academics are rigorous and competitive, but the relations between students are not. While not the most important factor, it is most definitely a beautiful campus, with mountains nearby which are absolutely magical.

Brigham Young University is my favorite place on Earth right now. I always wanted to come here and worked hard in high school to make sure there was no way they could turn me away. The campus itself is beautiful and the buildings are close to one another. Most teachers keep their own agenda out of class discussion, although some do see things one way and one way only and if you do not agree, you get whatever grade they decide to give you. There are so many majors and classes and service opportunities here it really should be illegal. The students here are kind and open and willing to serve whenever they can. We are a diverse body of students and take pride in what we learn from each other! Last, but certainly not least, is the sports. BYU is famous for football, mens volleyball, basketball, soccer...Most of our sports teams are at least decent with many of them excelling in more than one way. There is never a shortage of things to do here, as Provo is a "college town." BYU is a great place to be.

BYU is the best college to attend, in my opinion. People say you are in a bubble while attending here because you don't have to deal with people drinking, smoking, and doing other things like that. I appreciate this about BYU because I was able to be surrounded by better people more often and I could focus more on my homework than having to worry other things that aren't worth my time.
