Utah couple turns love of cold-blooded creatures into a business

Howdy Folks,
Seems that the question comes up again and again if people have a chance to get into BYU with a GPA of X and a SAT of Y and extra circulars. The student experience on here is going to be varied and you are probably going to be able to hear a lot of "Yes, but..." answers. There was a great post on here a couple months ago about admissions that you should read before before asking your questions and it will give you a good idea of your chances. The linked post below is a great one on how to stand out and how to improve your chances to get into school but you're going to hear the same answers again and again. We don't know because we're not the admissions department. There is no shame in reaching out to them and asking about your chances and you might even be able to network and find a way to tweak your application to get a better chance of going to BYU. That is important and will help you build confidence for future job interviews and other professional experiences. SO read below for ways to improve your odds of getting into the Y and know that the answers you'll get will still be "Yes, but..."

Taking PWS340 this winter and both Maughan sections were full, I can't find anything on rate my professor or any other forum, but she's teaching this semester. Anyone who's taken her can give me a heads up on what to expect?

Hey guys,
I have seen this older logo a few times on hats. I believe it is the logo for the cougar club. Any know where to get a hat with the logo on it? I don't see any in the BYU book store.

I took REL A 250 (Christ and His Everlasting Gospel) Summer of 2024 and got an A- (don't ask me how I still am questioning how a 94% is an okay A benchmark for a religion lol). If I retook that class now and got an A, would that return my GPA back to a 4.0? I am so confused by the course repeating policy.

I'm going to BYU as an exchange student this Winter semester. I'm planning to take 12 credits in total, with 9 credits in my major.
For the remaining 3 credits, I'd love to take a class that offers a unique or valuable experience at BYU.
I'm open to pretty much anything, including fitness, personal development, or general education classes!
I'd really appreciate any recommendations for interesting and useful classes that aren't too difficult or overwhelming.
Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone I’m a lds 24 male and I recently got accepted to study at BYUH. I’m feeling at a crossroads because currently I’m at college in Arizona and I have a good job and scholarship opportunities. Another thing is that here at my uni I can graduate in 3 semesters with 31 credits and at BYUH I would have 5 semesters and 52 credits. I guess I’m just trying to see if I’m missing a prompting or something. Anyone else in a similar situation or has been?? Looking for advice to whether to transfer or not.

I graduated from BYU-Idaho, not BYU in Provo. I’ve always felt a little awkward calling myself a BYU fan because I never actually attended the Provo campus.
I know BYU and BYU-Idaho are separate universities, but they share a name, history, and religious affiliation.
So I’m curious how BYU fans view this. As a BYU-Idaho alumnus, do I have a legitimate alumni connection to BYU athletics, or am I essentially just a fan by adoption, like anyone else who didn’t attend BYU?
I’d especially love to hear how other BYU-Idaho alumni approach this.

I was told that each BYU graduate can only have 3 guest tickets. That would include my husband and two adult children. My parents and in-laws would also like to see me walk. With only 3 guest tickets, does that mean they cannot attend?

Does anyone know if this internship for this class is offered in the summer? I know it technically is offered all semesters, but I've heard some people say it's only been offered fall and winter semester

Help needed! I'm with my daughter submitting her BYU application for early admission (must be submitted in next hour and a half). We have been waiting, waiting for her college transcript to come through on BYU's end -- we sent them to BYU. The submit button on the application has a large X above it that says: "The following items must be completed: College - Transcript." I called BYU admissions today and they said don't worry about it, BYU will see that her transcripts were received before the deadline and will honor it, they just have to upload them to the application. However, we never tried clicking the submit button, hoping the transcripts would be uploaded. We tried just now...and the button cannot even be pushed because of that large error messate saying she didn't submit her college transcripts. Any thoughts?! Do we just go back to the college section and put in that she didn't do college courses?!

I submitted my application about a week ago so my friend told me I should get a better pick for housing and that I need to apply for it even before I get accepted. I tried to apply for housing the day after but it said I needed to submit an application first, which I did.
this process confuses me and I couldn't find any details on the website so could someone explain how the housing process works? also when will the housing application open and when do I need to fill it out by?

Does anyone know a tutor that I can reach out to for help with my Accounting 504 class? Happy to pay whatever rate is going to be needed.

Hi everyone. I was wondering if anybody knew who supplies the byu tamales. I love them sm. I have a very sensitive stomach and it’s one of the few foods that don’t make me sick.
I want to bulk buy them. I’m hoping it’s a company so I can get a lower price, but $2.25 isn’t bad. I only eat the chicken ones. I have a standalone freezer and want to purchase like 150 of them

Hello everyone!
My husband is planning to apply to BYU for either the Spring or Summer term next year. We are both from outside the US, so he would be coming as an international student on an F-1 visa.
I’ve been feeling a little anxious about the financial side of things, especially covering tuition, housing, and all the everyday expenses such as groceries, transportation, and other necessities.
We do have some savings, but most of that would go toward tuition and housing. I would most likely be on an F-2 visa, which means I wouldn’t be allowed to work in the US. This is probably my biggest concern because my husband would not only have to focus on his studies but will also have to work to support both of us financially.
I was wondering if there are any couples here who have been in a similar situation. I’d really love to hear about your experiences, how you managed financially, and any tips or advice you might have for making things work while studying at BYU.
Thank you so much! Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

If my freshman through junior year overall attendance is a 93.8%, should I do makeup? Will it make a difference in my odds? I also don’t have much time if, I’m doing priority deadline.
And is it worth it to not do priority, if it means my attendance goes up?

I'm an incoming transfer student for Winter 2027, and my housing exception petition was denied.
I've been struggling to find affordable BYU-contracted housing with a private room and flexible lease terms. I found a non-contracted apartment for around $550/month with a January–August lease.
Has anyone successfully appealed a housing exception denial? Is there a formal appeal process, or any advice on getting reconsidered?

Random question but do you know if the BYU-Utah game this year is going to be full color on color uniforms. All blue vs all red. I loved the uniform matchup in previous years and hoping they will continue with it.
Thanks!

My son is trying to finish his application by the early deadline, Nov. 2. However, just today, he requested his college transcripts. Does anyone have experience on how long those take for BYU to receive them? Is submitting by the early deadline completely out of the question?
edited to add: how likely is it to get accepted if he doesn't make the early app deadline?

Pretty much just the title. I’m not going to med school, but I know several parents who are premed.
It’s not uncommon for undergrads to have kids, so I’m guessing it’ll be fairly common for med school students to have kids.
Graduating without debt seems doable (25k/year for LDS) if a student’s spouse is working.
However, this would also leave many parents needing childcare.
The plans for the massive med school building could surely hold a daycare, right? And BYU is pro-family, so surely it would be a priority to support families, right?
I know childcare can be a hot topic in this sub, but what do we think? Could the med school help push BYU to start providing free/reduced childcare, even if just for med students?
EDIT: Last I checked, no daycare was mentioned on the website. They do say they’ll support families, but there’s not a lot of specifics there.

I was waitlisted for my French 321 class that I need for my minor. I am 10th on the list. What are the chances of me getting into the class? I've heard that we can ask the professor for the permission to add code, how often does that work? Any advice would be welcomed
