Brigham Young University is a great university with wonderful people and a supportive environment! The administration clearly has a great love for their students and want them to not only succeed but to be happy as they do so! To them, students' well-being is just as important as their opportunities and accomplishments. Many of the professors express this same attitude and demonstrate great passion for what they teach as well! They truly strive to provide the highest quality education that they can, and they're also willing to take the time to ensure that students understand and feel confident with the subject matter. Though BYU may not rank the highest in the nation for every subject matter, they make up for it all in their quality and care as they strive to give the most they can. It's a wonderful environment to study in.
As a currently enrolled student of BYU who is away for the summer, I miss the atmosphere and sense of belonging that I feel at BYU. The culture is made up of people that are truly happy and desire for others to share in their happiness! While BYU is far from perfect, like every other university, I think one of the unique things about the school is that there are opportunities for those looking for any variety of college experience. Education and personal development are the primary goals, but there is never a shortage of things to do or projects to take part in around campus!
With all of that being said, one improvement I'd like to see would be a stronger bond among students. Most people attending BYU have looked forward to this opportunity their whole lives but what really will make a difference is being the difference to fellow classmates. That change needs to start with me and each other individual if it's going to come to fruition.

As far as academics are concerned, BYU is a great university! I have enjoyed the high quality education I have received. The tuition is also a great price for the quality education in which it offers. Some challenges I have experienced at BYU include a lack of meeting the needs of the students in their learning. As a creative mind, it is difficult to learn STEM classes in a rigid way. Some of my professors did minimum to help me access new ways of learning in my classes to make my experience better. Another disadvantage of BYU is how rigid they make their General Ed courses. The GE's at BYU many times are more difficult than needed. The assignments given are practically busywork. Overall, however, BYU is a great university to attend! If you are looking for a high quality education for an affordable price, this is the place to be!
