<p>I am a non-mormon who is seriously considering BYU. Do you think that being a non-mormon will significantly hurt my chances of being accepted?</p>
<p>what’s attracting you to BYU, then?</p>
<p>
It’s a good school. And maybe he/she likes the morality of the student body.</p>
<p>there are many conservative, good schools in this country. i figured BYU was an attraction to most of its students because it’s one of the few LDS schools out there.</p>
<p>i don’t have any basis for that, I just assumed that it’s that kind of place…</p>
<p>Yes the morality of the student body, the traditional principles they embrace and the conservative politics are what is attracting me to BYU.</p>
<p>To answer your question it WILL hurt your chances, but how much is debatable. Non Mormons do get in.</p>
<p>I am a non-LDS international. I’m admitted to the class of 2013. I have even received scholarship covering 50-60% of tuition for the first year. I’ll be joining BYU this fall.</p>
<p>IMO, they’ll admit you. Don’t worry. My stats weren’t even that impressive but still I got in, with scholarship.</p>
<p>Congrats on getting in talha_adnan. What were your stats?</p>
<p>I had a 1750/2400 on SATs. Toefl: 108/120. My high school record was good though, 3A’s 1B in GCE AS Levels. Couple of nice ECs. :)</p>
