rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author raquelp2 - 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...

educ-Colleges and Universities-All-Brigham Young University UT: Brigham Young University - where you don't have a name, just a social security number.

Tue, 13 Mar 2001 01:29:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author curtnord - 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...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author davejensen - 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.

Fri, 1 Sep 2000 21:29:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shopper85408 - Heritage Halls is the only on campus apartment that actually feels like an apartment - not a typical dorm. Each building is 2-3 stories high and has (on average) four apartments on each floor.

I lived in Heritage my freshman year because I...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HannaHanson - 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...

Wed, 17 May 2000 12:34:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jausten - You won't find a cleaner, better maintained campus anywhere. I've been to other schools where the floors are always dirty, the weeds run amuck, and graffiti decorates the bathroom walls. The BYU campus practically sparkles compared to most...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lizardlips - Soccer- now there's a great sport! I love soccer tons. Just as much as I like hockey. Soccer was one of my first intramural sports at BYU. It was indoor soccer, which is quite fun- even if you don't know what you're doing, because you can use the walls...

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...

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 20:47:04 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author HannaHanson - BYU can be a very social school - if you're living off campus. On campus, the fun is hard to find. Sure, you've got freshman wards to keep you busy, but with a girl to guy ratio of 2:1, a girl has a hard time getting a date. There's no drinking, no...
