Mormons are rude and I have a hard time believing that they are Christian. If you don’t look exactly like them, they will walk right past you and not even say hello (not very Christian). They immediately want to know if you are Mormon. They have an agenda, and that is getting you baptized into their religion- I assume to raise their numbers-it’s all about numbers, just watch their General Conference and you’ll see what their all about(they always mention how many new members they have).
The religion reminds me of an old fashioned pyramid scheme. Hey, don’t forget about what they did at the “mountain meadow massacre”. Don’t believe me?? Look it up. Shameful .
Mormons whine about how they kept getting kicked out of all these states because of their religious “beliefs”. Dude! You are practicing polygamy!!!!!! Of course you are getting kicked out.response / report this review -

Great school, if you are a Mormon. Good quality education for the price, if you're Mormon. The campus is not as big as I'd imagined and beautiful in its own way. The people are nice and friendly. However, beware of the culture. It is extremely conservative. Mormons can be proud people. For a religion that promotes the freedom to choose it doesn't leave room for mistakes. Basically, you have to choose their way. This kind of rhetoric does not allow for personal growth. You just have to be good all the time, strive for perfection. Their honor code is over the top and interviews get extremely personal. The school's policy to get into their students' private lives seems inappropriate. Furthermore, it encourages dishonesty. I knew of students that felt absolutely no remorse for lying.
Free thinkers are not welcome. You must look and act a certain way to fit in. They look down on anyone who isn't like the rest of them. There is a lot of backstabbing in the Mormon culture. A lot is said behind people's backs. I never met a Mormon who was willing to tell it like it is. I never met a true open-minded individual there. Their Mormon religious beliefs take over their rational thinking. Moreover, analytical thinking isn't something you will find at BYU because this kind of deliberation is not good for their religion and for the church to stay strong.
But, if you are willing to live the Mormon life then BYU is for you.response / report this review -

I did a tour of the campus and I have to say I was impressed with the tour, but even more impressed with the students themselves. I'm not Mormon, but seeing how these kids are raised makes me want to raise my children Mormon so that they'll become respectful and impressive as I noticed these students were. I have never toured a university that even remotely compared to this. I was blown away.

The attendants on the phone are always friendly. I appreciate the lack of hold times.

Outstanding university with a talented pool of students. Situated in one of the most breathtakingly scenic locations for a university campus, with stunning mountains on the doorstep of the school, your walks to class will be often awe-inspiring. There has been a lot of updating on the campus. Make no mistake, this is a unique environment that won't be for everyone. But for active members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or those who like the clean-cut environment, it is a great place to get an education. Though it has a well-deserved reputation as being very conservative, you will find a lot more political diversity here than you expect on many issues. And with the majority of students from outside the state of Utah, in many ways, it is more diverse than any other school in Utah, and less in the "bubble" than critics often claim. Great place to get an education. And the cost for the value is incredible!

BYU is the "dream job" of most professors here. They are passionate about the vision of the University. Great competitive education with a deep connection to the gospel. My wife and I will finish school with no debt. What a bargain!

This is THE WORST. Online course I've EVER taken. First off, it's $150 for a class. Second, they don't know how to give instructions. I'm pretty sure I could have my dog run a class better than half of these people! My professor didn't post part of an assignment so I submitted what I had and guess what? This minimum wage earning teenager who lives on his own just trying to make a life for himself, had to spend $25 just to SUBMIT. My final assignment. So think of it like this. I sell hours of my life to my work for eleven dollars an hour. I pay for my class which is about 17-18 hours of my life being sold. Then they want an additional 3 hours from me to submit what I already paid for. I hope this school goes under and the team crumbles, leaving most employees unemployed. I'd actually prefer getting hit by a semi truck on the freeway then take this course. Byu is the SHITTIEST. Online education I've ever recieved. I have the freedom of speech protecting me, so lets see if I even have that. Will I get fined for putting this comment up? My honest opinion? Stay tuned for more!

Great Private Christian University. Terrific value! After 20 years I appreciate my 4 year BS degree in Statistics more each year. I love talking about the school, being a fan of the sports and attending the games and supporting my cougs, sending my kids to camps and attending BYU scouting powwows to learn alongside my boys for those merit badges. I support this university and am very content to continue to do so.

Always wanted to come here. The tuition doesn't cost an arm and a leg which is a plus. Also I have had a chance to see the administration on almost a daily basis bring a custodian and all. They are for the most part nice, hard-working and considerate of the students and of us custodians. Can't say that about other universities that I'm familiar with. The grounds are also well kept too.
I do have my gripes (beards/shaving, etc) but overall I am glad I attend here.response / report this review
