    • What is your overall opinion of this school?

       

      I like BYU over all. It's a fantastic school for the price. Very inexpensive for the education offered. I'd say people are pretty judgmental over all. that is one down side to BYU. We see different and aren't always as accepting as we probably should be. The campus is really nice and quite small comparative to other universities which makes it nice for walking and getting around in between classes. Over all I also think people are pretty cold, by saying that I mean they aren't very friendly. Sure if you can get into their "group" they'll be friendly but other than that, Not so much.

    • What are the academics like at your school?

       

      Do professors know my name? Ha! good joke, count yourself lucky if they ever say hello in person. They are very smart yet not very personal. I've become accustomed to the fact yet it would be nice to have someone other than the religion professors be friendly. Yes there are intellectual conversations outside classes and people are intelligent overall. The classes and students are super competitive. It's very sink or swim here. I work on campus so that is where I spend most of my time. The professors are very willing to meet with you during office ours. That is a very nice part about it.

    • Describe the students at your school.

       

      I would say the students over all are pretty good. not the worst people but they aren't very friendly till you put forth the effort.

    • What are the most popular student activities/groups?

       

      There is always something going on, if not, Most LDS people can come up with random stuff to do that doesn't contain alcohol.

    • What is the stereotype of students at your school?

       

      - Everyone's a Member of the LDS Church

      - Nothing Bad happens at BYU

      - Everyone has the same beliefs

      - People only come here to get married

      - All males are RM's if not they must have done something really bad preventing them from going on a mission

      - Can't wear Shorts
