Brigham Young University Programs: Tuition fees, Ranking, Scholarships, Application Deadlines & Entry Requirements

Fees:

The tuition fee is $2800 per semester. I received a private scholarship for academic excellence for $2000 each semester. I received loans through the government directly through FASFA for $1800 a semester. There are a variety of scholarships available and the student financial aid office can work with students to assist in finding other scholarships outside of the school.

Growing up, I watched as my older siblings, as well as their friends, went off to college, many to BYU. When they came home for breaks I heard stories of professors who cared about their students and their work as well as peers who had similar goals as them. These qualities are what made me interested in attending BYU. The application process was fairly simple - a single application and application fee that allowed you to send your answers to all 3 of BYU campuses at once. I chose to attend BYU Provo, the most competitive of all 3 campuses, due largely to the quality of their nursing program and the academic rigor they were known for. As I only applied to 4 schools total - the others being BYU Idaho, University of Utah, and Utah State - I was relieved to have gotten in. Besides their academic programs, a huge draw to BYU for me was their low price tuition and the scholarship package I was offered as a result of my ACT score, class rank, and GPA. I was accepted with a 34 ACT score, and a 4.0 GPA, although I credit my acceptance more heavily to my variety of extracurriculars including leadership positions and volunteer experience.

Course Curriculum:

The curriculum is good. There is always room for improvement but I feel I have learned a lot already having only taken one semester of school so far. I enjoy the classes and curriculum I am and have taken.

Fees:

There is the tuition fee and then the cost of all your books. They can easily be paid for online. Also, a few to tell them where you live off campus.

Course Curriculum:

Honestly, I love most of my classes, but they're all pretty difficult when they don't need to be. BYU has been doing well lately with rankings and they want the academia of the University to reflect that so the professors give you lots of homework and pretend like their class is the only one you're taking. But the professors do really care about you, which is nice.

Fees:

Tuition is super affordable which is one of the appeals of this university. I haven't encountered additional fees when it comes to classes but that doesn't mean they aren't there. Tests are charged a late fee on the last day that they are open and some major admittance tests require fees.
