What kind of person should attend Brigham Young University-Provo?

Brandon

Anyone who is willing to commit themselves to challenging academics while trying to find themselves in a clean, spiritually-rich environment.

Ryan

I think any person that is seeking to have a great education mixed with a diversity of students. Also students that are looking for a lot of extra-curricular activities.

Florence

I think an open-minded person should attend this school. He/she should be willing to learn and not afraid to make good choices. This school stresses something called the Honor Code, and so a person willing to adhere to certain rules should attend this school as well. It's a good school, but if you can't follow certain rules than it won't be such an enjoyable experience.

Emily

BYU students should be hard workers, friendly neighbors, and good in crowds. They must be willing to live by the Honor Code, which is strictly enforced; but if you are smart enough to get accepted, you are probably creative enough to find ways to have a great time within the rules.

Katherine

If you're looking for a religious college setting, a fabulous social life, and a lot of hard, worthwhile work, BYU is the place for you. A person who attends this school need to be dedicated. This dedication is not only regarding academics and a career path. I'm speaking of dedication to making life in every aspect the best it can be. BYU encourages setting goals socially, morally, physically, and mentally. Improvement and lifelong learning is the ultimate goal here and if you want to grow, BYU is the college for you.

Melanie

I think people that attend this school should be willing to work hard for their education. It's a great school with a great environment, however, typical college "partiers" wouldn't like it here.

Jordan

It would be easiest if you were LDS to attend, since this is an LDS school. You need to be willing to work hard so you can do well in your classes and get ahead.

Heather

Brigham Young University is a school for people who are looking for a strong academic chalenge but are also aware that college is meant to be an enjoyable experience overall--both in the classroom and outside. An individual who's well grounded, modest, looking to make lifetime friends, to learn their butt off, and who does not use drugs or alcohol would feel right at home at this school!

Andrea

Anyone who isn't blinded by the worldly stresses. This is for people to learn who they are and become someone great due to the education that is liberally offered here.

Haley

People who want to reach their academic goals as well as grow in other ways-- spiritual, emotional, etc.
