Hi my name is Rylee Jo and I would love to show you why I absolutely fell in love with Brigham Young University and what makes it so special here! After I graduated high school I came down here to BYU with no friends nor family, but this place has totally became my home and family! I have built lifelong friendships, relationships, and memories thanks to the incredible opportunities offered here at BYU Provo. Along with the social side, BYU has really helped me achieve my full academic future. I came to BYU with a determined mindset to work hard, but not a very clear vision of where I was going. But BYU and it's incredible resources and staff have now helped me write a clear path to accomplish my goal of being a family and youth councilor! Lets go take a tour around campus and I will show you all of the incredible thing that Brigham Young University has to offer to help you become everything you've dreamed of and more!
