Experience at Marriott School…
One of the things I liked the most was the interaction among international students. To understand the different cultures was something interesting too.
Experience as an international student…
It was a tough one.
- Believe it or not, we are alike but we are different.
- The language was a barrier, even though I believe I do speak English very well.
- The grading is something we have to get used to.
- The pressure to find a job and to be recognized.
Words of advice for prospective CIS students…
- Words of advice: Find a job before you start studying. The best is to go to BYU employed, that way you can focus on the studies and challenges you'll have.
- Don't get desperate to go to BYU and leave everything you have, make a disciplined and objective decision, analyze your characteristics and don't ignore them in case you find out you are not the right fit.
