super friendly and honest. I love the student body and diversity

Most students at BYUI are of the same beliefs and values. If can be very refreshing if you have those same viewpoints and standards. However if you do not, then you might feel out of place, or even alienated. They are mostly nice people who value respect and service.

Preston

The students are friendly and ambitious, for the most part. Obviously, there are always students who want nothing more than to skate by on nothing; however, the student body as a whole is driven and easy to feel a part of.

Dylan

The students here at BYU I are probably the nicest people you will ever be around.

Rebekah

They are hard working and kind. They seem clean, bright, self motivated and smart. Again, there could be more diversity or free thinking.

Kind and full of service spirit. They are eager to do good to others at all times. They help you out if they see you are in trouble. They are honest and trustworthy. Something I appreciate a lot is that they take care of all the resources the school gives them.

Michelle

My classmates are very friendly, outgoing, smart, and full of kindness; they are all a lot of fun and are very willing to give service to anyone, no matter where you come from and what your background is like.

Jesse

Similarly to BYU, BYU-I students sign an honor code when they agree to attend that prohibits many of the same behaviors, and while there are groups of students who excuse themselves into repugnant hypocrisy the majority keep to the code. Although it has its fair share of airheads, the student body is a mostly studious bunch. Most of the students hail from Mountain and Pacific states (Idaho, Utah, Washington, Oregon, New Mexico, California and Arizona)but there are students from every state (Georgia, North Carolina, and New York come to mind) and there were a few out-of-country students; not many, but enough to give the mix flavor. At first glance, it may seem that everyone looks the same and acts the same considering how similar their ethno-sociological backgrounds are, but the truth is, I never met anybody who really fit the "white mormon" stereotype while attending. Each person had a different personality, different tastes, different strengths, different nuances of opinion and they were just DIFFERENT.....and yet unified, bound in a common faith. It was such a refreshing paradox. I also loved the noncompetitive atmosphere at BYU-I...it was really laid-back, friendly, and focused on helping each other succeed.

Lexi

My classmates here are talented, dedicated, and focused students. I feel that in any of my classes if I express my opinion and someone were to disagree they would express there opinions and ideas in a respectful way keeping the safe environment.

The majority of my classmates are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day saints, they come from everywhere. All of my classmates have high ambition and large goals, they know that they have to work hard to get where they want to be.

They are ambitious and some of the finest people that I have had the opportunity to meet.

The few clasmates I associated with were creative, exciting, and fun people. These people I would see outside of school and would make sure to have the same high standards I have. Being Mormon, most people at my high school did not appeal to me, and therefore I did not care for them. These people did not seem like they were going very far, and many of them did not get out of the small city of Cypress. My classmates were not the brightest and it was great because it helped me to be the aspire to be better.

The classmates participate in all the class discussions. They are respectful of eachother and very friendly and open in getting to know others around them. You'll find that many hold the same values and standards and aren't afraid to ask questions or make statements in reference to them.

Careshmeh

They are all very well kempt. They are not perfect, but I see my fellow students putting forth thier best effort every day. When my friends adn classmates do get over whelmed, they ask for help from the many different tutors and help centers on campus. FInals are always stressful so we don't get together very much during those times, but when we do, we are taking time away to vent and take a much needed quick brake from school work.
