Pros: Prestigious, Good Professors, Relatively low tuition Cons: Large Class Sizes
I attended Brigham Young University my freshman year of college, and I absolutely loved it! I have since transferred to a different school only because I got married, so I transferred to where my husband was going to school. There were so many things ...
Pros: Excellent education, beautiful surroundings, caring and loving teachers and staff Cons: My daughter and I found no cons
I have the good fortune to be the mother of a Brigham Young University graduate. When my daughter decided to attend a university after high school, she knew exactly which school she wanted. The first thing we did was schedule a trip to the University...
Pros: Low cost, creative social life, motivational teachers, located in a beautiful state with outdoor diversity. Cons: Lots of hoops to jump through, competitive, strict honor code, students struggle with self-righteousness.
I will begin by telling you that I loved my experience at BYU where I graduated in Elementary Education (the number one major for size). What did I love about it?
-- Devoted, Motivational teachers... once you get into your program. My...
Pros: Free, Fun activities and dances, lots of eligible people to date, people with high standards Cons: ??
Where else can you get a very good education and find many eligible people to date?
I'm sure some things have changed since I graduated, but I know for a fact that BYU is still a place where people can find other quality people to date and...
Pros: Fantastic Student Body, Honor Code, Religious Education, Great Social Life Cons: Honor Code, Off Campus Housing, Provo
I began my education at the University of Utah, left on a two-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and completed my education at Brigham Young University. BYU's Pros are the University of Utah's Cons and vice-versa....
Pros: Excellent library, reasonable tuition, they never kicked me out Cons: Ultra-conservative, controlled environment
My opinion is in the minority here, but I would not recommend BYU to a friend or a younger sibling. BYU has its upsides, but those who value their independence are likely to be disappointed.
Pros: Largest LDS dating pool on earth; Religion classes Cons: Homogeneous; weather; classes too big
Why is it that reviews of BYU -- written or spoken -- are always so polarized? It's either "RA-RA BYU" or "Sneer-Sneer, they think they're the chosen people." I think there's room for discussion.
Pros: good environment, fun, good student relationships, good student-teacher relationships, a lot of planned activities Cons: Utah, snow, big
As I walked across campus today, I realized how wonderful this University really is. I thought about the past five and a half months that I've been a student here, and all that I've grown to love about the school.
The first thing that I thought...
Pros: Great diversity, so much to choose from Cons: Can't think of anything!
Participating in extracurricular activities is where you really start to learn! There are so many things to choose from at BYU that it is truly mind-boggling. There is definitely something here for everyone.
Pros: pros to what? a meal plan? uh.. well- you'd get to eat... if you didn't have any money in the first place... of course... Cons: uh... you might not like what you get?!
Hm... trying to decide if you want dining plus or open door? Well... it's a tough decision, I know. I don't know how I came up to the conclusion of picking Dining Plus, but I did- and it was a good thing, too. Dining Plus gives you about $10 a day. Maybe...
Pros: Outstanding institution, LOW tuition, excellent faculty, great sports, friendly campus, Honor Code. Cons: Honor Code (if you don't agree with it), Provo, lack of diversity.
Coming to Brigham Young University from a far more liberal school like University of Oregon is probably something akin to moving from mid-town Manhattan to a monastery... the change is almost alarming at first, but you really get to like the peaceful...
Pros: Learn more about business, meet new people that can help further your career, social benefits, a trip to RENO! Cons: People may associate you with being in a stereotypical fraternity
BYU is not known for any fraternity affiliation. But a huge secret on campus is that a few do really exist. I am currently a member of Alpha Kappa Psi, a Professional Business Fraternity at Brigham Young University. We are a co-ed frat, that plan events...
Pros: The best atmosphere to grow academically, spiritually, socially, beautiful campus, unlimited opportunities Cons: Could be a bit more diverse
I LOVED BYU! I graduated in 1985 with 2 bachelors degrees and currently seek out opportunities to be associated with the school because of its outstanding image. Despite its reputation, you do NOT have to be LDS to attend the school (member of the...
Pros: Lots of fun, battle-scars, great way to procrastinate homework... Cons: hm... now there's a good question!
Most girls don’t play hockey... “it’s not lady like”, or... something like that. But seriously, hockey and soccer are my favorite sports. When Scott (the sports guy in our ward*) announced that he was signing us up for “co-ed” floor hockey, I was...
Pros: Great programs, high moral standard, quality education Cons: lacks diversity
Yes, it's true. My parents both attended and met at BYU, and I was named after one of the homecoming queens from the 60's. I visited her portrait upstairs in the Wilkinson Center many times during my 4 years at BYU (or was it 5?)
