BYUI review by Nicole

Overview

BYUI was my college of choice since my second year of high school. With its high acceptance rate, low tuition costs and safe environment it was the best fit for me. It was close to the majority of my family members and several of my friends were attending. I applied to two other schools but BYUI was my top choice. There was a $50 application fee but the low tuition rates made the fee worth it.

Scholarship

Yes, I did. All I did to receive these was fill out the required applications. It was not hard. If you maintain good grades and are at a certain income level, you have better chances at receiving awards
