Brigham Young University-Idaho Top Questions

What kind of person should not attend Brigham Young University-Idaho?

Becca

Students just looking to party should not attend this school. It is a religious school with very high standards and a strict honor code.

Enoch

College CAN be a waste of time and money if you don’t take it seriously. Excuses to not try come so easily – the topic is boring, the teacher is even more boring, no one else is listening, this information will never be useful. No matter the teacher, the class size, the subject, education taken seriously is never a waste. If you can take something uninteresting and focus on it anyway the result is an attitude that will make you a more productive worker. BYU-I is a fantastic school for anyone who is willing to work hard.

Clif

Someone who doesn't work hard.

joseph

people that are not interested in learning

Michaela

If you cannot stick to a cerfew and follow rules or guidlines BYUI would be a very difficult school to go to. It is a very religious atmosphere so if you arenot comfortable with prayer or talk of God you will not enjoy school here.

Amanda

People who get restless or bored easily, or who are looking for a place with a lot of entertainment probably wouldn't want to come here as Rexburg has a very limited amount of things to do, and the closest place where there are actually things to do is Idaho Falls, 30 minutes away.

Callie

Someone who likes to party and break the rules! If you aren't willing to abide by the rules set up by the school, it's not going to be a very good time.

Cortney

If you are against religion this is not a school for you. Every class is started with a prayer and sometimes even a song.

Andrea

People who want sunshine and to party.

Tyler

Some one who is an aetheist would not be comfortable in this school as it is a highly religious campus. Nearly every class tries to tie the subject being learned back to the gospel.

Krystal

Anyone who doesn't like to follow rules would be a poor candidate for this school. They have very high standards for their students regarding their dress, grooming and even lifestyle. I appreciate that about the school because it helps me to focus on what I need to do to present myself to future employers and clients after graduation.

Stacie

Some think that there out to get a hubsand or wife but I am out too get eductuion!

pierson

Anyone who is looking for a party school or who wants degree that the school doesn't offer.

Sarah

If you like to party, this isn't the school for you. If you don't do well with following rules, then this is not the school you should think about attending.

Elizabeth

The kind of person who should not attend this school is the one who feels himself above rules.

Jina

Everyone at the campus is very kind to one another, however it is a very small town without a lot to do if you are not interested in the outdoors. If you need to be around a lot of stores or entertainment involving a city or suburban area this is not the right school for you.

Charmain

A person who is not organized should not attend the University of Phoenix Online. In order to be successful here, one needs to be able to plan one's time (to include class, home/family and work) to adequately allow for the rapid pace of assignment due dates. If one is not organized and aware of their time, then one will not be able to succeed at the University of Phoenix Online.

Jason

Anyone looking for a great place to learn while still having fun

Joshua

Someone who is dishonest or who does not like to obey rules. Here at BYU-I we have a lot of rules that other colleges do not since it is a private university. There is curfew at midnight, no camping with the opposite sex, no co-ed dorms, etc. A person who does not like those type of rules should not attend. Also modesty is required and a lot of the summer clothes are not acceptable for wear. Men are not allowed to have beards only a well trimmed mustache.

David

A person that is focused on getting an education first and partying not at all. At BYU-I students live according to a strict honor code system. This helps keep the campus calm so that students learn more while stressing less.
