Scholarships for transfer students

May 20, 2015 12:00 AM
We all instinctively know that treating people unfairly is wrong. Yet, despite our innate moral compass, dozens of incoming BYU students each year are still treated unfairly. Let me explain. There are two general types of BYU applicants: incoming freshmen and transfer students. Both types of students are treated the same in most aspects. Both must have excellent grades, must live by the honor code and must pay the same amount for tuition, housing and books. However, there is one big difference in the way BYU treats these two types of students. The incoming freshmen can receive academic scholarships upon entrance to the university; the transfer students cannot. This isn’t fair treatment. BYU administration should allow transfer students to be eligible to apply for academic scholarships upon entrance, because all admitted students deserve to be treated equally.

Hope for transfer students

February 03, 2015 12:00 AM
It was my first semester at BYU. I didn’t have the traditional freshman experience. Coming from BYU—Idaho, I found the BYU campus was daunting, and I was nervous about asking people for help. At BYU—Idaho, I knew the campus, I had a good group of friends, and I had a great GPA. But I felt that I needed to transfer to BYU Provo.
