<p>Uhh, no, it’s 2-3% who are non-LDS at BYU.</p>
<p>You sure you want to go to BYU that badly? These rules seem a little too much for me but you might be able to handle it. </p>
<p>The BYU honor code governs not only academic behavior, but morality, and dress and grooming standards of students and faculty, with the aim of providing an atmosphere consistent with LDS principles.[14] The Honor Code requires:
Abstinence from illicit drugs, alcohol, tobacco, coffee, and tea (substances forbidden by the LDS Word of Wisdom)
Honesty
Encouraging others in their commitment to keep the Honor Code
Living a chaste and virtuous life:
Appropriate gender-specific behavior (no sexual harassment)
No involvement with pornographic or indecent material
No inappropriate sexual activity (no sexual relationships outside of marriage)
No homosexual behavior
Obedience to the law
Active participation in church services (according to whatever religion a student is a member)
Respect for others
Clean language (no profanity)
Following the “Residential Living Standards” (visiting hours for members of the opposite sex)
Dress and Grooming Standards: Abiding by the guidelines for dress, grooming, and housing. Skirts must reach to the knee and shirts may not be sleeveless. Form fitting, strapless and revealing clothing is not appropriate. Male students may not wear beards or goatees, hair length must be above the ears, and sideburns must not extend below half of the ear.
Students are prohibited from having guns on campus</p>
<p>@Buggie111, ok but is that really gonna affect me too much? ill still be able to have a social life right? its not like LDS people wont want to talk to me because im non-LDS right?</p>
<p>@Buggie111, LDS people/Mormons are pretty acceptant right?</p>
<p>So don’t go UIUC or UT. There are dozens of schools with solid Accounting programs. You seem to have found a ranking list of accounting programs and are picking schools solely based on this list. </p>
<p>Again, you have a “trade school” attitude about this which would indicate that you really don’t understand the purpose of undergraduate education. </p>

<p>There is no “apart from religion” at BYU, it’s fundamental to everything that happens there.</p>
<p>I’d suggest looking at BYU’s [general</a> education requirements](<a href=“http://ge.byu.edu/ge/universitycore]general”>http://ge.byu.edu/ge/universitycore). There is no way to get out of BYU without a strong foundation in the LDS religion. Keep in mind that Mormons have something called Seminary which they attend (I think) every day before actual classes. These students will be experts in their religion, and I would be shocked if the course content didn’t reflect this level of knowledge given the assumption that virtually all students will have had a solid foundation in LDS culture from an early age.</p>
