Brigham Young University-Idaho Top Questions

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

Lora

How amazing the spirit is on campus and how grateful I am that I chose to attend this school over the other ones I was considering.

Amy

The people are great and the atmosphere is amazing. The small classes make learning easy. It's a great school with a very friendly student body.

Janae

Because BYU-Idaho is located in Southeastern Idaho, which is mostly country and farmland, there is a lot of space. Outside of the city there is an untold number of things that one can do and explore, which makes the possibilities for entertainment endless. While there are many criticisms related to the strict honor code that all students at BYU-I must abide by, I feel that there is good reasoning behind it. These regulations truly are conducive to helping each student do the best that they can do academically while also maintaining moral standards.

Tasha

I love the atmosphere at the school. Everyone is so friendly and willing to help eachother. The classes are the perfect size, not so large that your teacher doesn't know who you are but also not so small that you can't remain fairly anonymous if you choose. There are lots of activities on campus and everyone has an equal opportunity to get involved in intramurals, entertainment, arts, whatever you want.

Stephen

Tuition is so cheap. Plus they issue you a scholarship automatically if you meet their GPA requirements. Our class sizes are about the same that I had in high school. My proffesors are experts in their field and I can tell that they want me to succeed. All of my proffesors know my name!!!

Elizabeth

I brag about how nice all my professors are and how inexspenxive it is to go here.

Rebecca

The student body is approximately 15,000 students, but it is not uncommon to see tens of familiar faces everywhere I go . Everyone knows everyone through just a few contacts! "I have a friend who has a friend who knows your friend..." Because Brigham Young University- Idaho is a predominantly religious institution, the students have even more of a network. Every new person I meet is an instant friend and there's a good chance that they are already friends with another friend of mine. Fellow students are so friendly it makes me smile just to think about it!

Jocelyn

How amazing the people here are. Its invigorating to work side by side with people of such a strong faith, who want nothing more than to see you succeed. They hold themselves to a higher standard which makes you want to do the same. Its really a great atomoshpere to grow and learn.

Sarah

I mostly tell them that everyone here at my university is so friendly and you are constantely making new friends. When I first started here, I was a little nervous because it was a new invironment, but after the first couple days of school, I felt welcomed and felt that I fit in with people. It was such a huge relief.

Rachelle

Students and teachers here have strong morals and high standards. Teachers can rely heavily on the Honor code and students will still do the assignments.
