Brigham Young University - Idaho Reviews

I love this university. It has become a safe haven for me. The professors are fabulous! They are well educated and extremely accomplished. They take their time to get to know students, and are very kind and helpful. The secular teaching often connects to gospel (Jesus Christ's teachings), making it a more rounded university as religion and secular topics are tied together.
What I would improve is the surrounding area including restaurants, shopping, and recreational activities. This location is ideal for someone who loves outside recreation (camping, fishing, hiking, skiing, etc.), but if outside recreation is not your passion, then there is really not much to do.
Review Brigham Young University - Idaho
I absolutely love it here! BYU Idaho is an amazing school. Classes are smaller here than in most other colleges, so the experience is much more personal. Most of the professors are fantastic! They remember your name and care about getting to know you as a student and as a person. The school has an amazing feeling about it; it's very spiritual. There are a lot of resources for students to use and there are lots of fun activities, so you can really get involved. BYU Idaho has inexpensive tuition, so it's very affordable. I would highly recommend attending here. Everyone is so friendly and the atmosphere is wonderful.
I love BYU-Idaho! The campus isn't too small or too big; it's the perfect campus size. The university focuses on the students' growth not just personally, but also the growth that comes with involving themselves with others. The professors are great and the student life is nice. The environment in and out of the campus is safe, especially that the student housing is monitored. Students come from different parts of the country and of the world, having a good amount of international students, making the campus much diverse. The tuition fee is very affordable considering that it's a private university, and there are many opportunities inside and outside of the campus to learn, work, and have fun.
